RCB vs CSK: Faf Du Plessis Out Or Not Out? RCB Skipper Furious After Controversial Umpiring Decision In IPL Game

The RCB vs CSK IPL 2024 game had all the drama that is worthy of such a mega clash. The game is a straight knockout between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Chennai Super Kings for the final spot in the IPL 2024 Playoffs. CSK are on 14 points from 13 matches (Net Run-rate +0.528) while RCB are on 12 points from 13 games (NRR +0.387). So, far Kolkata Knight Riders, SunRisers Hyderabad and Rajasthan Royals have qualified for the playoffs. It leaves only one spot. 

The RCB vs CSK saw a controversial moment when Faf du Plessis was given run out at the non-striker's end. It happened on the final ball of the 13th over by CSK's Mitchell Santner. An appeal for a run out at the bowler's end followed with Faf Du Plessis the player in question.

Santner got a fingertip to intercept Rajat Patidar's shot when Faf was backing up. Umpire Michael Gough took his time concluded that the bat was in the air. Faf was not at all happy as he kept saying something on the way back to the dug-out. 

A decision that left the #RCB camp baffled
