Proteas batsman Heinrich Klaasen starred for the Seattle Orcas on Saturday evening as he hit a quick-fire 53 in their win over the San Francisco Unicorns in a Major League Cricket (MLC) clash.
The game between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Gujarat Titans is extremely important with respect to the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 as the result will decide which teams reach the playoffs of the competition. While Gujarat Titans, Chennai Super Kings and Lucknow Super Giants have already booked their spot in the top-4, the final slot is still up for grabs. RCB are still in the running and Mumbai Indians took a huge step forward by defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad. The rain in Bengaluru has delayed the toss in RCB's game and that has severely altered the qualification scenarios for both the teams.
Playing this IPL's last league stage match, Royal Challengers Bangalore would know what exactly is required of them to qualify for the playoffs, when they face table-toppers Gujarat Titans in Bengaluru on Sunday. With batting maestro Virat Kohli back at his absolute best and skipper Faf du Plessis leading from the front with 600-plus runs this season, RCB will hope their dazzling opening duo fires in this must-win game for them. Besides playing in front of their beloved home crowd that will back them vociferously come Sunday, the other advantage for du Plessis' side is that they feature in the last game of the league round on Sunday evening, by which time RCB would know the outcome of the duel between MI and SRH in Mumbai.
In-form Heinrich Klaasen displayed his big-hitting prowess on way to his maiden IPL hundred as Sunrisers Hyderabad recovered from a poor start to post 186 for five against Royal Challengers Bangalore in a crucial match in Hyderabad on Thursday. The keeper-batter had six hits over the fence and eight across it during his scintillating 51-ball knock. He forged a 76-run partnership with Aiden Markram (18) before adding another 74 off 36 balls with Harry Brook (27 not out) to take SRH to a competitive total.
Virat Kohli will be in focus as Royal Challengers Bangalore look to strengthen their claim for an IPL play-off berth in their must-win match against laggards Sunrisers Hyderabad here on Thursday. RCB are currently in the fifth spot with 12 points from as many games and face two must-win matches to guarantee their play-off spot. SRH, on the other hand, are out of the tournament and languishing at the ninth spot with eight points from 12 matches.
Virat Kohli left everyone in splits during a fun bowling session with his Royal Challengers Bangalore teammates - Dinesh Karthik, Glenn Maxwell and Mohammed Siraj. RCB on Monday shared a video on social media in which all the four players got a target to hit while bowling. While all the other players went through the fair way, Kohli came up with a smart but hilarious act. The former RCB captain kept running with the ball in hand and eventually hit the target by getting close to it.
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik registered an unwanted batting record to his name in his Indian Premier League (IPL) during his side's match against Rajasthan Royals (RR) on Sunday. In the match, he was dismissed for a two-ball duck by Adam Zampa. This was his 16th duck in IPL, joint-most by any player in IPL history. Mumbai Indians (MI) skipper Rohit Sharma also has 16 ducks in IPL. After these two batters, Sunil Narine (Kolkata Knight Riders) and Mandeep Singh have 15 ducks each in IPL.
Royal Challengers Bangalore put in arguably their finest performance of the season, bundling out Rajasthan Royals for just 59 runs while defending their total of 171 in an Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 match. In what was a must-win battle for both sides, the resounding victory gave RCB a big push in their hopes of a top-four finish. As fans went ga-ga over the Bengaluru franchise's performance against the Rajasthan, even Lucknow Super Giants took to Twitter to hail Faf du Plessis & Co. As a result, Virat Kohli-Gautam Gambhir memes flooded the internet.
