Days after playing a quickfire half-century against Punjab Kings (PBKS), Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) batter Tim David has expressed his desire to bat higher up the order. David's 25-ball 50 helped RCB post a total of 95 on the board after an embarrassing collapse that saw them lose seven wickets for just 42 runs. Despite RCB eventually losing the match, David's knock earned him plaudits and also sparked a debate whether he should be allowed to bat higher up the order. Ahead of the second match of their double-header against PBKS on Sunday, David gave a cheeky reply after he was asked about his batting order.
Punjab Kings shot on their foot as the duo of Nehal Wadhera and Josh Inglis produced an epic mix-up while running between the wickets, producing a hilarious run out. Both batters were found wandering at the same end of the pitch as Virat Kohli and Tim David combined to get Wadhera run out for just 5 runs. Kohli, who was part of the fielding team that produced the run-out, stunned everyone with his celebration of the wicket. Understandably ecstatic with the fall of a big wicket, Kohli also seemed to have targeted someone with the gesture.
