On Friday, April, 20, 2012, Royal Challengers Bangalore beat Kings XI http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Punjab-c833 by five wickets at Punjab Cricket Association Stadium, Mohali, Chandigarh.

Kings XI in the absence of regular skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Adam-Gilchrist-c918, managed to amass an impressive total of 163 runs on the board, but were let down by the bowling as they failed to defend the total, losing the game in 19.3 overs.
Hard-hitting opener, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/CH-Gayle-c1221 from RCB was named as the Player of the Match for his astounding innings of 87 runs, which led his side to a successful run chase.

“Knight Riders is not just my team it is all about 23 players. What I think is best eleven and is the best batting order. In the first two matches I thought I needed to go and bat at number three and after that there was a need to open the innings. I will again go back to number three if needed. There is no place for individuals in the team and it is all about winning," he said.
Gambhir came at number-three in the first two games where he failed to prosper as he scored 16 in the first and then zero in the second match. However, the batsman has been doing wonders as an opener in the last four outings, where he has smashed two half centuries.
Teammate http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Delhi-c780 to a successful run chase.
"KP (Pietersen) played exceptionally well. Last night's knock from KP is one of the best I have seen. It was a very good game yesterday," Mahela said.
