"I Am 5 Feet 3 Inches": Ex-India Star Body-Shamed For Calling Glenn Maxwell "Over-Rated"

On Saturday, Royal Challengers Bengaluru chased down a target of 148 against Gujarat Titans in just 13.4 overs in Bengaluru.

Du Plesiss (64, 23b, 10x4, 3x6) and Kohli (42, 27b, 2x4, 4x6), who added 92 runs in just 35 balls for the opening wicket, were in prime touch as Royal Challengers moved past a frail target of 148, braving
