Maxwell, Chahal Star In RCB's passage into IPL 2021 Playoffs

Glenn Maxwell smashed 57 and then Yuzvendra Chahal spun a web around Punjab Kings as they once again bungled a chase allowing Royal Challengers Bangalore book a play-off berth with a six-run victory in an IPL 2021 game in Sharjah on Sunday. Maxwell's 34-ball-57 propelled RCB to 164 for 7 which is the highest team total in Sharjah this season and then Chahal owned the middle-overs with another game-changing spell of 3/29 which saw KL Rahul's team finish at 158 for 6. With 16 points from 12 games, RCB became the third team after Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals to make it to the last four stage. (Photos: BCCI-IPL)
