Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) leg-spinner Wanindu Hasaranga’s five-wicket haul against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) guided the Faf du Plessis’ led side to an emphatic 67-run victory in Match 54 of IPL 2022 on Sunday.

Batting first in the day game, RCB batters fired in unison to power their team to an intimidating 192-3 in 20 overs.

For Sunrisers, left-arm spinner Jagadeesha Suchith returned with the best figures (2/30), including the prized wicket of Virat Kohli (0).
