Amid all the backslapping and celebrating after Rajasthan Royals sealed their place in the IPL final with a win over Royal Challengers Bangalore on Friday night, Jos Buttler and Virat Kohli shared an embrace.
Sanjay Manjrekar believes while the legendary Shane Warne was the first 'royal', Jos Buttler is the 'reigning royal' after the charismatic England cricketer smashed an unbeaten 106 off 60 balls to guide Rajasthan Royals to their second ever IPL final. Riding on a superb century by Buttler -- his first in a chase this season -- the Sanju Samson-led Royals defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore in Qualifier 2 by seven wickets on May 27 to set up a title clash with Gujarat Titans later on Sunday.
Royal Challengers Bangalore once again were left empty-handed in the Indian Premier League (IPL) after they went out of the IPL 2022 losing to Rajasthan Royals in the Qualifier 2. The loss extended RCB's wait for an IPL title. This season, RCB had a new captain in Faf du Plessis. They qualified of the IPL play-offs in the fourth place and then defeated Lucknow Super Giants in the Eliminator. However, they could not go beyond that after their loss to Rajasthan Royals.
Virat Kohli's struggles in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League have been quite evident and former England skipper Michael Vaughan wants the star batter to take a break from the game, which was also suggested by former India head coach Ravi Shastri earlier during the season. Kohli was dismissed for seven during RCB's defeat to Rajasthan Royals in Qualifier 2 of IPL 2022 on Friday. The 33-year-old endured one of his worst seasons, scoring just 341 runs in 16 matches. Vaughan feels that Kohli should spend some time away from the game, saying that every player goes through a difficult phase in his career.
Indian Premier League (IPL) debutants Gujarat Titans will take on a Shane Warne-inspired Rajasthan Royals in Sunday's final, both teams eyeing a fairy tale victory after each enjoyed a dominant season run.
Rajasthan Royals will take on Gujarat Titans in the final of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. After beating Royal Challengers Bangalore in a one-sided Qualifier 2, courtesy Jos Buttler's fourth century of the season, RR will eye revenge over GT, who had earlier defeated them in Qualifier 1. RR last won the IPL final in 2008 to lift the title under the leadership of the late great Shane Warne. Eyeing their second IPL title, RR are likely to name an unchanged XI for the summit clash.
Rajasthan Royals star Jos Buttler has the chance to break some massive records when they take on Gujarat Titans in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday. In the Royals' Qualifier 2 win against Royal Challengers Bangalore, Buttler scored his fourth century of the season, matching Virat Kohli's record from the 2016 edition. If Buttler manages to score a century in the final, he will go past Kohli, with five centuries.
Gujarat Titans have reached the final of their first season in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and will look to win the title when they take on Rajasthan Royals at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday. The Titans secured Hardik Pandya, Rashid Khan and Shubman Gill as their pre-auction picks and then secured the likes of David Miller, Rahul Tewatia and Mohammed Shami at the mega auction ahead of the season. Many experts were critical of their squad, but they surprised everyone by dominating the league stage and then going on to reach the final under Pandya's captaincy.
