The last time they met

The previous meeting of RCB and CSK took place at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bangalore. Bangalore batted first and ABD blasting runs from balls, they notch a mammoth score of 205 in their first innings. CSK had to do the record chase at that ground to win.

The chase from Chennai began on a good note with Abati Rayudu leading the way. he was finally run-out for 82. MSD then mentally defeated Mohammad Siraj and Corey Anderson with his bludgeoning knock of 70(34) to clinch a magical win.
