IPL 2022: Dinesh Karthik close to being as ice cool as MS Dhoni, says RCB skipper Faf du Plessis

Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper Faf du Plessis hailed Dinesh Karthik's calm presence with the bat, saying that the veteran wicketkeeper-batter is close to legendary MS Dhoni in terms of ice cool temperament. In RCB's successful run-chase of 128 against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the DY Patil Stadium on Wednesday, Karthik was held back till he came at number seven and finished off the chase with an unbeaten 14 off just seven balls. AS IT HAPPENED"In an ideal world, we would've liked to have won more convincingly but a win is a win. DK's experience helped in the end, cool, calm, runs were never really too far away. DK is as close as it gets to MS Dhoni when it comes to being ice cool," said Du Plessis after the match. The thrilling three-wicket win was also Bangalore's first victory of the competition.

IPL 2022, LSG vs CSK: Chennai Super Kings, Lucknow Super Giants aim to bounce back from opening losses

Chennai Super Kings and Lucknow Super Giants both endured losses in their opening matches of IPL 2022. While it was a crushing 6-wicket defeat for CSK against Kolkata Knight Riders, LSG lost an edge-of-the-seat thriller to Gujarat Titans. A common factor in their defeats was the failure of the top-order, and Chennai as well as Lucknow would look to correct that at the Brabourne Stadium when they square off on Thursday. Interestingly, the first four matches in this year’s IPL have been won by teams chasing and it is evident that dew is playing a factor in the outcome of matches. Both CSK and LSG lost their opening games after batting first, and they are likely to prefer the chase if the coin falls in their favour.

IPL 2022, RCB vs KKR: RCB scrape past 129-run target to beat KKR by 3 wickets in last-over thriller

Royal Challengers Bangalore forked out a mind-boggling Rs 10.75 crore for the leg-spinner at the auction recently. Considering the 24-year-old was preferred over their trusted marshal Yuzvendra Chahal, the pressure was on Hasaranga to deliver right from the first ball he bowled in the opener against Punjab Kings. With figures of 1/40, it was hardly the best of starts. At the DY Patil stadium in Mumbai on Wednesday, much like the rest of the RCB bowling unit, Hasaranga redeemed himself, returning an impressive 4 for 20 as Faf du Plessis’ men restricted Kolkata Knight Riders to 128 in 18.5 overs.

IPL 2022: Proud of the way team took the match to last over, says KKR skipper Shreyas Iyer

Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR) skipper Shreyas Iyer felt extremely proud of his team for the way it took the match against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) into the final over. In a low-scoring IPL 2022 thriller at the DY Patil Stadium, Kolkata tried to defend a paltry score of 128 but were unable to do so despite taking three wickets in first six overs as Bangalore completed the chase with four balls to spare. RCB went on to win by three wickets. AS IT HAPPENED"I really found this game exciting. Before getting in, I spoke with my boys and told them that this game is going to define our character and attitude on the field no matter we defend or not. The way we fight it on the ground, that is really going to reflect our mentality in the next few games. I am really proud of the way we played this game and took it till the last over," said Shreyas after the match. Shreyas was appreciative of Bangalore strategising their chase very well.
