Latest IPL 2022 Points Table, Orange Cap & Purple Cap Holder After RCB vs RR Match 39

Rajasthan Royals thumped Royal Challengers Bangalore in what turned out to be a low-scoring affair. Rajasthan defended a 145-run target quite convincingly by 29 runs as Bangalore got bowled out for 115 runs. 

The total was set up by 20-year-old Riyan Parag's timely half-century to take RR close 150-run mark. Kuldeep Sen's four-wicket haul and disciplined bowling by the rest of the bowlers helped them restrict a below-par target.
