RCB vs CSK HIGHLIGHTS, IPL 2026 Match 11: Royal Challengers Bengaluru beat Chennai Super Kings by 43 runs

Tim David, who made all the difference with his 25-ball 70, was adjudged Player of the Match. Speaking at the post-match presentation ceremony, he said, "On his innings) Very pleased - does not always happen that way. The skipper was smoking it, and I just took some balls off him - it was super fun. I do not change my game much, but I have confidence from all the prep I do. Going in to bat with Jitesh and Shepherd behind me really gives me confidence. Lot of prep we do here. Nice to work with DK - he is an experienced player in these conditions. Have been in the IPL for a few years. With that prep, you don't put pressure on yourself to perform."

Ruturaj Gaikwad, CSK captain, while speaking at the post-match presentation ceremony, said, "I was also a little surprised, to be honest. Great fight by Sarfaraz, Overton, Veer and to some extent, Dube. If I would have contributed more, maybe it could have been different. It (the loss) was definitely on me today. (On David's innings) Almost got a wicket of him but it was an illegal delivery."

"After that, he smacked it all around the park. Hats off to him. (On if they should have had powerplay wickets) We would have had, if we would have taken an early chance of Kohli. We would have had momentum. We still had the game in our hands till the 13-14th over (but let momentum slip after it)," he added.

Wicket!! That would be it. Abhinandan Singh gets the last wicket and it is the wicket of Matt Henry. That marks the end of Chennai's innings at 207. RCB win by 43 runs, which is a huge margin, but not big enough to get them to the top spot in the points table.
