“Until we meet again, NCN. Speedy recovery,” the tweet from the Royals read.

Speaking of Rajasthan Royals, they are considered hot favorites for the 15th edition of IPL as they did an excellent job of making a formidable team at the auction. They had a stellar start to the season as they bulldozed SRH in their opening encounter and then defeated five-time champs MI in their second encounter.

However, they came up short against Royal Challengers Bangalore defending a total of 169. The bowlers had done well until the 14th over of the chase when RCB needed 80 off 40 balls with only five wickets in hand.

But Dinesh Karthik launched an assault to score runs at will and took his team home with five balls to spare as RCB registered their second win of the season.

Highlights:

• Nathan Coulter-Nile is ruled out of the IPL.

• NCN sustained an injury in the opening match against SRH.
