Harshal Patel is a well known name in the Royal Challengers Bangalore dressing room now. He took an IPL record 32 wickets in the 2021 season and that prompted the franchise to pay Rs 10.75 crore to get the player's services back in the IPL mega auction earlier this year. Harshal is yet to touch the heights of last season in IPL 2022 but he has been doing a consistent job for his team in the death overs.
Royal Challengers Bangalore star Harshal Patel was involved in a heated altercation with Rajasthan Royals' Riyan Parag after the final over of the Royals' innings in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 match on Tuesday, when the youngster hit the pacer for a boundary and two sixes. Harshal was also the last wicket to fall for RCB as they were bowled out for 115 in their chase of 145. As he was walking back to the dugout, he snubbed a handshake from Riyan Parag, but went on to shake hands with other Rajasthan players.
Harshal Patel has now made his name as one of the best death bowlers and the batters struggle to pick his slower balls out of the hand. Royal Challengers Bangalore completely rely on the pacer to not concede many runs and also take wickets at crucial junctures of the game. The pacer has recalled how he was sent back home midway an Indian Premier League (IPL) season and he labelled it as "epitome of rejection".
All-rounder Riyan Parag was involved in a heated exchange with Harshal Patel as Rajasthan Royals (RR) took on Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in Match 39 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season, at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. The incident happened after the first innings where RR posted 144 for eight in 20 overs, with Parag registering an unbeaten half-century. The incident occured after the 20th over, where Harshal bowled and Parag smacked a four and two sixes, one of which came off the last delivery. The 20-year-old ended the innings with a maximum over cow corner, making it 18 runs off the over. After the innings, the Assam native could be seen walking off the field, but turned around and started having a heated altercation with Harshal, who was stopped by members of the RR support staff.
Umran Malik could be fast-tracked into the Indian team as early as June when it will play seven T20 Internationals against South Africa and Ireland respectively. India will play South Africa in a five-match T20 International series at home (June 9, 12, 14, 17, 20) and two matches in Ireland's Malahide (June 26, 28) where a second-string team comprising white-ball specialists will be plying their trade as the big guns prepare for the series-deciding fifth Test against England, starting early July.
Lucknow Super Giants and Royal Challengers Bangalore clash in the IPL here on Tuesday. LSG and RCB head into the match after wins over Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals, respectively and both teams, who have eight points from six outings, would be keen to continue their winning streak. Up against the second-placed Super Giants, RCB will need to address their top-order woes. While skipper Faf du Plessis has failed to fire since the opening game, opener Anuj Rawat has looked scratchy.
IPL 2022, Delhi Capitals vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Score Updates: Delhi Capitals (DC) face Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in Match 27 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. DC got back to winning ways in their previous match after thrashing Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). RCB, on the other hand, saw their three-game winning run ended by the Chennai Super Kings (CSK). DC have been pretty good with the ball, but will seek more consistency in the batting department. RCB, on the other hand, have leaked runs with the ball, and will look to work in that area. Mitchell Marsh has been training in the nets but it's not clear whether he'll play or not. RCB could also make a tweak or two as they look to improve on their death bowling. Harshal Patel could also make his comeback after missing the last game. (LIVE SCORECARD)
Having notched up his first win as captain of Chennai Super Kings, Ravindra Jadeja on Tuesday said he is still learning in his role and it will take some time "to get things going". After four successive losses, CSK finally opened their account on Tuesday with a 23-run win over Royal Challengers Bangalore. "First of all, this is the first victory as a captain ever. I would like to dedicate to my wife because first victory is always special," Jadeja said in the post-match presentation after CSK restricted RCB to 193 for 9 while chasing an imposing 217 to win.
