Brar cleaned up Kohli before beating the defence of Maxwell as he castled him in successive deliveries. In the next over, Brar scalped the in-form de Villiers as the Mr 360 hit the ball straight to the hands of Rahul at short extra cover. The Punjab Kings all-rounder finished with three wickets while conceding just 19 runs.

In the match, Punjab Kings posted 179/5 after a flourishing knock by KL Rahul as the skipper got support from Chris Gayle and later Brar. Chasing 180, RCB kept losing wickets and fell off the chase early in their innings. While there were plenty of match-winners for RCB, none performed well to take the team over the winning line as they fell short by 34 runs to concede their second defeat in IPL 2021.
