____________________
A very good execution by Royal Challengers Bangalore in last match. In the starting of the match, Smith and Butler were gave a good start till 2 overs. But from then nobody was standing in front of their bowlers. And one more thing our prediction that RCB will win this match also got true.
Toss
Steven Smith won the toss and elected to bat first seeing the hot 🔥 temperature 🌡️.
First Innings
Rajasthan Royals can't get a good start as Steven Smith, Jos Butler and Sanju Samson were dismissed very earlier by RCB bowlers. The openers and middle order of RR failed! RR was needing a partnership in the middle overs which they got from Mahipal Lomror who was playing his first IPL match and Riyan Parag. Lomror was very near to his fifty but can't complete his fifty as Chahal checkmated him with leg-spin. After Lomror and Riyan Parag, Rahul Tewatia and Jofra Archer give a final touch in their style and made RR reach 154 runs. It had been so struggling for Rajasthan Royals to reach till this score.
Virat Kohli's captaincy was amazing in this match. He bring his every bowler according to the situation. Yuzi Chahal was the highest wicket taker in this match. He took 3 important wickets of Sanju Samson, Robin Uthappa and Mahipal Lomror. Udana took 2 wickets and Saini took 1 wicket.
Second Innings
Royal Challengers Bangalore were really sensational. They chased 155 very easily as they got a absolutely good Start from Youngster Devdutt Padikkal. Padikkal is playing very good in this season as he hit 3 fifties in just 4 matches. Do you Think Padikkal will be a part of Team India after 1 year? Let me know in the comments section. There was a lot of questions for the bad form of Virat Kohli but it's solved as Kohli's form came and he hit the most runs in this match. He played an outstanding innings of 72 runs and made his team chase the target and won the match. He was also very comfortable against Shreyas Gopal and also hit some boundaries in his over. Rajasthan's bowlers only took 2 wickets. Where everyone was saying Shreyas Gopal will be a problem for RCB, he also took only 1 wicket of Aaron Finch. 1 wicket was also taken by Jofra Archer.
Match Result : Royal Challengers Bangalore defeated Rajasthan Royals by 8 wickets.
