Dilshan did it for RCB when they last met

Put into bat on April 23 last year, Royal Challengers Bangalore made Rahul Dravid and Rajasthan Royals pay as Tillakaratne Dilshan anchored the innings with an unbeaten 76, AB de Villiers' onslaught towards the end propelled RCB to a solid total of 189 for three.

In reply, Royals did not manage to put up a fight, much to the disappointment of the home crowd and eventually lost by a big margin of 46 runs. K Appanna was the star with ball as he sent four Royals batsmen back to the dugout.

BRIEF SCORES: RCB 189-3 (Tillakaratne Dilshan 76*, AB de Villiers 59*) beat Rajasthan Royals 143-7 (Rahul Dravid 58, KP Appanna 4-19) by 46 runs
