Virat Kohli played a classy 43 off 25 balls, anchoring RCB’s top order with precise stroke play. He hit 7 fours and 2 sixes, keeping the chase steady. His fluent innings ended when Harsh Dubey dismissed him, cutting short what could have been a big knock.

The IPL's statement noted that the rest of RCB's playing 12, including the Impact Player, were each fined either ₹6 lakh or 25% of their individual match fees
