Tim David produced a brutal display of power-hitting, smashing 70 off just 25 balls to power Royal Challengers Bengaluru to a massive 250/3 against Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2026. Walking in during the middle phase, David completely flipped the game on its head with a knock that combined clean striking, fearless intent, and absolute dominance.

The Australian finisher looked in sublime touch from ball one. He took on every bowler, regardless of reputation, and made it look effortless. With 8 towering sixes and 3 boundaries, David maintained a staggering strike rate of 280, repeatedly clearing the ropes and putting CSK under immense pressure.

His partnership with Rajat Patidar turned out to be the defining phase of the innings. The duo stitched together a 99-run stand in just 35 balls, with Patidar contributing a fiery 48 off 19 deliveries. However, it was David who took complete control in the latter stages, especially in the death overs where he dismantled the bowling attack with calculated aggression.

The final over summed up his dominance. Facing Anshul Kamboj, David capped off his innings with another boundary, taking RCB to the 250-run mark. CSK’s bowlers had no answers, and the fielders were reduced to spectators as the ball kept flying into the stands.

As expected, social media erupted instantly after David’s carnage, with fans and experts alike in awe of the knock.
