The administrator of LSG's Twitter handle wrote, "Ladies & gentlemen, this is how you...𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐘 𝐁𝐎𝐋𝐃". For the unversed, "Play Bold" is one of RCB's slogans.

Nicholas Pooran was adjudged the Player of the Match for his counter-attacking innings. After receiving the award, he said he would like to dedicate this special knock to his wife and newborn.

Meanwhile, LSG captain, KL Rahul couldn't be any happier with the result as his team clinched the thriller. "Unbelievable. This is the Chinnaswamy, the only venue where so many last-ball finishes are possible. From the position we were in, to end up winning it is superb. We had to go hard and the ball swung early, and they got 2-3 wickets to put the pressure on us. The only reason we got two points today is for the way the lower order batted," KL Rahul added.

"Not ideal for me, I want to score more runs and get the strike rate up as well. We've played on two tough Lucknow wickets, and today we lost 3 wickets so I went slower. I wanted to stay till the end and play with Nicky. Batting 5 ,6, 7 is the toughest positions to play and that's where games are won and lost. We know about the power in Marcus and Nicky, and Ayush has come along as well. He's played 2-3 knocks last year, and he's continued to perform well for us," the LSG captain said.
