In an extraordinary batting showcase, Royal Challengers Bengaluru set the IPL season's highest total by amassing 250 for 3 against the Chennai Super Kings on Sunday.

Sent in to bat, RCB capitalized on a stellar top-order performance. Devdutt Padikkal, in explosive form, hammered a quick 29-ball fifty, while opener Philip Salt contributed a significant 46 off 30 balls, establishing a solid foundation for the team.
