Chris Gayle bludgeoned his way to a marauding 57-ball 117 (4x7 and 6x12)his fifth IPL century and

 led his side to a mammoth 226/3 as RCB hammered KXIP by 138 runs as KXIP could score only 88/10 in 13.4 Overs

KXIP paid a heavy price for dropping Gayle twice — on 27 and 53

Left-arm paceman Sreenath Aravind (4/27) rocked the Punjab top and middle-order, while Mitchell Starc (4/15) polished off the lower-order. The Punjab batsmen inexplicably surrendered without any fight and were reduced to 34 for five in six over, with no chance of redeeming themselves. 

It was the second-biggest win in IPL history by run-margin, only behind Kolkata Knight Riders’ 140-run victory over RCB in first-ever IPL match in 2008. 

With this win, Bangalore have enhanced their chances to make the play-offs as they have jumped to third spot in the table with 11 points from 10 matches
