RCB enter IPL final by beating GL by 4 wickets

Ab de Villiers played a breathtaking knock to singlehandedly lead Royal Challengers Bangalore fightback and take them into the IPL final with a thrilling four wicket win over Gujarat Lions at Bengaluru last night. Chasing 159, Bangalore looked down and out at 29 for five before de Villiers smashed 79 off 47 balls to script a sensational comeback and take the team home in 18.2 overs. The Lions were outdone by one man's class as the efforts of Dhawal Kulkarani and Dwayne Smith went in vain. With the spectacular win, Challengers are into their third IPL final and one step away from their maiden title. Lions on other hand will have another chance to make the summit clash in the Qualifier 2 in Delhi on Friday. In today's eliminator match, Sunrisers Hyderabad will clash with Kolkata Knight Riders at Feroz Shah Kotla Ground in Delhi.
