Royal Challengers Bangalore won their game against Delhi Daredevils comprehensively in Chinnaswamy stadium. Both the teams were in horrendous form going into the game, but RCB came out with flying colors with a easy win with six wickets in hand.

An AB de Villiers??? master class has helped RCB win the game comfortably. Although there has been lot of concerns about their bowling, batsmen also found it difficult against Delhi bowlers.

Virat Kohli did provide the support during middle overs but the form of their top order once again looks like a concern. Trent Boult took a sensational one hand blinder to dismiss Kohli, but AB de Villiers??? just increased his rate of scoring post the incident.

His 90 runs from just 39 balls is just out of the context of the game and the way pitch was playing. Earlier in the day, Bangalore bowlers were very good in the power play overs to restrict Delhi openers to a less score in the power play overs.

But youngsters Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant played extraordinary cricket to increase their rate of scoring. Pant, especially was swashbuckling with his bat as he guided his team until the end. Delhi managed a par 174/5 in their 20 overs which proved to be less on the wicket.

AB de Villiers once again caught the eye of the audience with his stellar show against his former employers.

Here is how Twitter reacted to the game
