While RCB managed to pip Mumbai and Chennai in terms of social media engagement, the franchise is yet to crack the code where it can beat CSK. There was a chance to turn fortunes around when the two teams met on Monday at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium but RCB could not as if it was not meant to be.

The MS Dhoni-led team beat Faf du Plessis and Co. by eight runs in a high-scoring thriller. While many RCB fans were happy that their team was in the hunt till the very last over, many could not believe that the team lost from a winning position. Notably, RCB needed 36 runs off 20 balls when Dinesh Karthik and Shahbaz Ahmed were going strong.

However, the two batters got out in quick succession and CSK just tightened the grip from thereon.
