In a thrilling IPL match, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) secured a commanding 35-run victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH). The match, held in Hyderabad, saw RCB's spinners shine as they ended their six-match losing streak and kept their playoff hopes alive.

RCB's batting prowess was on full display as they set a formidable total of 206 runs for the loss of 7 wickets. Key contributions came from skipper Virat Kohli, who scored 51 runs off 43 balls, and Rajat Patidar, whose explosive half-century off 19 balls bolstered the team's innings.

However, it was RCB's spinners who stole the show, led by Swapnil Singh and Karn Sharma. They wreaked havoc on SRH's batting lineup, restricting them to 171 runs for the loss of 8 wickets. SRH's chase faltered right from the start, with six wickets falling within the first ten overs.

Despite valiant efforts from SRH's batsmen, including Pat Cummins' 31 off 15 balls and Shahbaz Ahmed's unbeaten 40 runs, RCB's disciplined bowling attack proved too much to handle.

Key moments in the match included Patidar's explosive batting, Cameron Green's crucial contributions, and Jaydev Unadkat's milestone performance in his 100th IPL game.

With this victory, RCB not only halted SRH's winning streak but also showcased their determination to bounce back in the tournament. As the IPL progresses, RCB will aim to build on this momentum and secure a spot in the playoffs.

Overall, it was a thrilling encounter that kept fans on the edge of their seats until the last ball was bowled.
