The official IPL scorecard confirms RCB’s 230/4 chase. PBKS 200/3 on 23 May 2026 is the latest 2026 chase, not the highest venue chase. The 174.79 first-innings average and match count use the IPL-only ground archive; a shortened match and the Super Over result retain their original classifications.
