Day 24, Match 32, RCB vs RR - IPL 2023 Highlights
BADSHAHBOOK: On Saturday, the M Chinnaswamy Stadium witnessed an exciting IPL 2023 contest between the Royal Challengers Bangalore and the Rajasthan Royals, with the former emerging victorious. The Rajasthan Royals won the toss and elected to field first, hoping to make an early breakthrough, which they did by dismissing Virat Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal cheaply. However, Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell formed a formidable partnership that helped Bangalore recover and post a competitive total.
Du Plessis, who was subbed off due to an injury, played a blazing knock of 62 off just 39 deliveries. He was well supported by Maxwell, who scored a quickfire 77 off 44 before being dismissed by Sandeep Sharma in the 15th over. The duo added 127 runs off just 66 balls, laying the foundation for a solid first-innings total.
After their dismissal, the Rajasthan Royals made a strong comeback, restricting Bangalore to 189/9 in their allotted 20 overs. They were well served by Trent Boult and Sandeep Sharma, who picked up two wickets each, while Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal also chipped in with a wicket each.
During the run chase, the Rajasthan Royals lost Jos Buttler in the very first over, with Mohammed Siraj rattling his stumps. However, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Devdutt Padikkal stitched a partnership of 98 runs to keep the Royals in the hunt. Padikkal departed for 52, and Jaiswal was dismissed for 47, after which the Royals lost wickets at regular intervals. The required run rate kept mounting, and they found it hard to keep up with the pace.
Both the teams displayed some brilliant fielding on the day, with Jaiswal's direct throw to run out Du Plessis being a standout moment. Suyash Prabhudessai also contributed significantly, running out Shimron Hetmyer for just 3 runs. In the end, Dhruv Jurel remained unbeaten on 34 off 16, and R Ashwin scored 12 off 6, but it wasn't enough to secure a win for the Rajasthan Royals.
