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.
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.
Kolkata Knight Riders look the most well-balanced team. The Shreyas Iyer-led side is firing as a unit having all its bases covered. They will once again start as favourites against Delhi Capitals, who have performed below potential so far, at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Sunday. While KKR have lost only one of their four matches so far, DC managed to win just one after playing three. It must be heartening for the DC team management to see Prithvi Shaw getting runs in the last match against Lucknow Super Giants. Against a man-inform Umesh Yadav, who is regularly providing KKR early breakthroughs, the team will look for another good start from the 2018 U-19 World Cup-winning captain Shaw who got 479 runs in 15 matches in last IPL.
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.
Abhishek scores 75, TN boys Natarajan, Washington shine with the ball to help SRH hand Super Kings 4th straight lossThis is the year of change in the IPL. Old order is giving way to the new and Chennai Super Kings - the champions of 'old-school' T20 - are bearing the brunt. AS IT HAPPENED | SCORECARD | POINTS TABLEThe other day it was Ayush Badoni, then it was Vaibhav Arora, and on Saturday it was Sunrisers Hyderabad's Abhishek Sharma who handed CSK their fourth loss in a row - the first time since 2010. Abhishek, a 21-year-old left-hander, played an innings of pure class on a pitch where shot-making wasn't easy as SRH ran away to an eight-wicket win with 16 balls to spare. The back-of-the-length delivery on this DY Patil pitch was stopping just a bit and when CSK managed 154-7, one felt it would shape up into quite a game.
In other circumstances, there would be much excitement about the idea of Erik ten Hag arriving as the new manager of Manchester United.
