Tim David showed exactly why Royal Challengers Bengaluru retained his services for the 2026 season with a scintillating power-hitting display for the defending Indian Premier League (IPL) champion on Sunday.
The 30-year-old Australian clobbered eight sixes in his unbeaten 70 off 25 balls as Bengaluru scored a 43-run win over Chennai Super Kings to make it two wins from two.
In an innings of huge hits, David drew gasps with a monstrous 106m strike that landed on the roof of the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium.
“I’ve been getting in trouble during training with the boys,” Player-of-the-Match David said of the six.
“We have competitions to try and hit them on the roof, and we’re obviously on the side pitches. So, to get one during a match out of the middle, help it up on the roof, it was good fun.”
Bengaluru tops the early-season standings with a net run rate superior to that of Rajasthan Royals, Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings, who also began with back-to-back wins.
Bengaluru’s Rajat Patidar thumped 48 not out off 19 balls and David, who plundered 30 runs from a Jamie Overton over that included four sixes, said the captain’s approach helped set the platform for his late burst.
“Rajat was absolutely smoking it and I was taking balls off him so to be able to get us to a score and obviously put a lot of pressure on the opposition,” he added.
Chasing 251 for victory, five-time champion Chennai Super Kings managed 207 before being bowled out with two balls left in its innings.
“If you look at the score, we were ahead of them up to about five overs to go,” CSK head coach Stephen Fleming said.
“And then they just went like a rocket. So, that’s really where the game was lost for us.”
It was a third straight defeat for Chennai Super Kings, which slipped to the bottom of the table.

In his first return to San Francisco as a member of the Rockets, Kevin Durant poured in a game-high 31 points for Houston (49-29), which moved within one game of the Los Angeles Lakers and Denver Nuggets in their three-team duel for third place in the Western Conference.
Brandin Podziemski backed Curry with 18 points for the Warriors (36-42), who virtually assured themselves of the 10th seed in the Western play-in tournament.
Curry, who had missed 27 straight games since a January 30 injury against Detroit, played 26 minutes, during which he hit 11 of his 21 shots. The Warriors had gone 9-18 in his 27 absences as he recovered from a sore right knee.
