168/6 (20.0)     170/2 (18.4)

Hardik Pandya's 62 went in vain as Gujarat go down to Bangalore. Sunrisers Hyderabad and Punjab Kings eliminated.

Chasing 169, Kohli, who struck eight boundaries and two sixes, and captain Faf du Plessis (44) laid the foundation with a 115-run stand. 

Glenn Maxwell (40 not out off 18) provided the finishing touches as RCB romped home with eight balls remaining. Earlier, skipper Hardik Pandya hit a unbeaten 62 to help GT post 168 for 5. 

Besides Hardik, David Miller (34) and Wriddhiman Saha (31) also made useful contributions with the bat.

Gujarat Titans: 168 for 5 in 20 overs (Hardik Pandya 62 not out; Josh Hazzlewood 2/39).

Royal Challengers Bangalore: 170 for 2 in 19.2 overs (Virat Kohli 73; Glenn Maxwell 40 not out; Rashid Khan 2/32).
