RCB won the toss and elected to bat first. Bangalore have won the contest by 71 runs and they will now face Chennai Super Kings for a place in the final. What a convincing victory for Bangalore. Rajasthan never really looked to score and kept on losing wickets at regular intervals.
De Villiers hit a fighting 66 and shared a match-winning 113-run stand with Mandeep Singh (54 not out) as Bangalore recovered from a sluggish start to post a challenging 180 for four after electing to bat.

Rajasthan had the proceedings firmly under their grip but they leaked 86 runs in the last six overs to let it slip. De Villiers' 66 came off 38 balls with four sixes and as many fours while Mandeep took 34 balls for his unbeaten 54, which had seven fours and two sixes.Rajasthan never looked convincing in their chase as they kept losing wickets.
