KKR's next game was against RCB. Robin Uthappa yet again played an innings of 83 runs in 51 balls and led the team to set a daunting target of 196 runs for RCB. Kolkata bowlers did their job again and restricted Bangalore to 165 for 5 wickets. Sunil Narine took 4 wickets in 4 overs giving away just 20 runs. This win pushed KKR through to the playoffs but their standing in the table was still not fixed.
