Royal Challengers Bangalore spinner Wanindu Hasaranga expressed happiness after his spell helped his team register a win over Mumbai Indians on Saturday. Inspiring knocks from Anuj Rawat and Virat Kohli helped Royal Challengers Bangalore defeat Mumbai Indians by seven wickets at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium on Saturday.
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) five nights back. A timely jolt which will allow Sanju Samson to work on what went wrong when they next face Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the same venue, Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, on Sunday. A good Powerplay score and a tactful execution by the bowlers - if the total has to be defended with dew dampening plans - is what Royals will be looking for.
Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bangalore opener Anuj Rawat said that he was just following his 'process'. Inspiring knocks from Anuj Rawat and Virat Kohli helped Royal Challengers Bangalore defeat Mumbai Indians by seven wickets at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium on Saturday.
Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Faf du Plessis expressed happiness after his side thrashed Mumbai Indians in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 clash. Inspiring knocks from Anuj Rawat and Virat Kohli helped Royal Challengers Bangalore defeat Mumbai Indians by seven wickets at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium on Saturday. "Really good (how it feels). Mumbai is a strong team. Bowling tonight was really good. Probably for 18 overs excellent batting, was some quality batting at the end there. Very happy standing here. Would've bitten your arm off surely (target of 152). There was something in it for the bowlers with the new ball. Rohit played some good shots, very valuable wicket to get him out," said Faf du Plessis in a post-match presentation.
On Saturday, there were two matches in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022, with SunRisers Hyderabad beating Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore coming out on top against Mumbai Indians. SRH restricted CSK to 154/7 and chased down the target comfortably thanks to a brilliant 50-ball 75 by Abhishek Sharma. It was his first IPL half-century. In the second game, Mumbai Indians suffered a collapse and could only put on 151/6 on the board, largely due to Suryakumar Yadav's counter-attacking knock. However, Anuj Rawat hit his maiden half-century for RCB as they comfortably chased down the target, registering a seven-wicket win.
Rawat, Kohli shine as Bangalore sail to 7-wkt win; Surya's knock in vainFor a team brimming with talent, most of Mumbai Indians' batting line-up has been turning up with a cold bat. Against Royal Challengers Bangalore on Saturday night it was no different. Amidst the ruins, Suryakumar Yadav stood tall with a 37-ball unconquered 68 (5x4, 6x6) which helped the former champions to 151/6 in 20 overs at the MCA stadium in Pune. AS IT HAPPENED | SCORECARD | POINTS TABLEBut matches are hardly won on individual brilliance as Faf du Plessis' men handed the struggling five-time champions a seven-wicket defeat. The loss, their fourth consecutive this IPL season, leaves Mumbai in danger of making an early exit. While MI batsmen struggled, RCB had no such trouble as they closed out the match at 152/3 with nine balls to spare.
Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma on Saturday admitted in a roundabout manner that they are not being able to field the best possible side after losing their four matches on the trot in the IPL. MI lost by seven wickets to Royal Challengers Bangalore, who chased down a target of 152 with an over and a half to spare. Asked about the combination, the skipper reasoned: "Just went with the combination that would be ideal. We chose the best from whatever we had." Rohit did rue the fact that he got a start and couldn't convert it into big score.
Suryakumar Yadav hit an unbeaten 68 but his Mumbai Indians team fell to their fourth successive loss of this season's IPL as they went down to Royal Challengers Bangalore on Saturday. The swashbuckling Suryakumar lifted Mumbai from 79-6 to 151-6 but the total barely tested Faf du Plessis' Bangalore who achieved their target with nine balls and seven wickets to spare in Pune. Up and coming Indian talent Anuj Rawat hit 66 and put on 80 runs with Virat Kohli (48) to guide the team, who hunt for their maiden Indian Premier League title, to their third win in four games.
