South Africa's Faf du Plessis became the first batsman to cross the 400-run mark in this year’s Indian Premier League (IPL) after scoring a third consecutive half-century for Royal Challengers Bangalore on Sunday.
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) made it back-to-back wins after defeating Rajasthan Royals (RR) by seven wickets in an IPL 2023 clash on Sunday. Riding on Glenn Maxwell and Faf du Plessis' half-centuries, RCB went on to post a total of 189/9 in 20 overs. While Maxwell and Du Plessis took the attack to the RR bowlers, RCB stand-in captain Virat Kohli had a tough day at the office. After RR opted to bowl first, Kohli was dismissed on the first delivery of the match by Trent Boult.
Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings registered wins over Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders, respectively, on a blockbuster Sunday in IPL 2023. While RCB regained the fifth spot in the table, following Punjab Kings' win over Mumbai Indians on Saturday, CSK moved to the top of the pile, following RR's defeat in Bengaluru earlier on Sunday. Glenn Maxwell hammered 77 off 44 balls while Faf du Plessis contributed 62 off 39 balls to guide RCB to a par score of 189 for nine after being sent in to bat.
Former Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper Virat Kohli's green jersey nightmare continued as he walked back to the pavilion without opening his account against Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 on Sunday. It was Kohli's second consecutive golden duck of the IPL in a 'green jersey'. In 2022, Kohli was dismissed in 'green jersey' on the first ball by Jagadeesha Suchith in an IPL match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. On Sunday too, the RCB batter was dismissed on the very first ball of the match by Trent Boult against Rajasthan Royals during an IPL match at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Karnataka's Bengaluru.
It was a happy outing for Royal Challengers Bangalore as they defeated Rajasthan Royals by 7 runs in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 encounter on Sunday. The match went down to the wire but good fielding performances and disciplined bowling from Harshal Patel was enough to clinch the match. Virat Kohli was not able to contribute with his bat but his romantic gesture for wife Anushka Sharma during the match won several hearts. In the 14th over of the innings, Yashasvi Jaiswal slammed Harshal straight down the ground but it ended up being an easy catch for Kohli.
A late charge led by a cameo from Dhruv Jurel was not enough for Rajasthan Royals as a century stand between captain Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell set up a thrilling seven-run win for Royal Challengers Bangalore in their Indian Premier League match in Bengaluru on Sunday. Invited to bat, Maxwell (77 off 44 balls) and du Plessis (62 off 39 balls) shared 127 runs for the third wicket from only 66 deliveries to power RCB to 189 for 9 in 20 overs. Devdutt Padikkal (52 off 34 balls) struck his maiden fifty of the season and Yashasvi Jaiswal made 47 for a 98-run partnership for the second wicket but the Royals were lagging behind in the run chase before gaining momentum in the last five overs.
In match number 32 of IPL 2023, Rajasthan Royals' Yashasvi Jaiswal showed amazing reflexes to run out Royal Challengers Bangalore opener Faf du Plessis. Batting on 62, the RCB batter hit Sandeep Sharma's lower full toss towards the extra cover region on the second ball of the 14th over. Jaiswal stopped the ball inside the circle and threw it quickly towards the non-striker's end. An accurate throw from the RR star saw him hitting the bull's eye with Faf being caught well short of his crease.
