It was as close as it could get as Royal Challengers Bangalore scampered to a two-wicket win over the mighty Mumbai Indians to start off IPL 2021 in Chennai on Friday. The slow and two-paced wicket at the Chepauk provided a more even contest, with AB de Villiers making the difference with a belligerent 48 for Virat Kohli's men. The narrow loss for Mumbai meant their opening match jinx continues, though they may not be unduly perturbed with it. (Compiled by Gautam Bhattacharyya, Senior Associate Editor)
