Royal Challengers posted a total of 190/9 in the championship game of the IPL tournament against Punjab as star batter Virat Kohli top scored for the Bengaluru team, and went on to limit PBKS to a score 184/7 in 20 overs.
Sindhu is slated to take on Thai badminton star Pornpawee Chochuwong in her round of 16 encounter at the Indonesia Open following a win over rival Nozomi Okuhara of Japan with a score of 22-20, 21-23, 21-15 in a fixture that lasted nearly eighty-minutes.
