An IPL Trophy for which the Royal Challengers Bangalore team has been craving for 12 seasons, will Virat Kohli's team come in the 13th season?
The tournament is long and will have to wait a long time for the final result, but the courage shown by the army of Virat on Monday night in Dubai ground is a good sign for this team and its fans.
The Bangalore team missed several chances to take the lead against Sunrisers Hyderabad. After a good start, the team could not score as expected. Fielders also missed several catches. Bowlers like Dale Steyn and Umesh Yadav did not even see the shadow of their good days and by the 16th over of Hyderabad's innings, the Bangalore team fell behind but Virat's men overturned the match in the last 26 balls. The bounceback was led by the captain himself.
Virat Kohli
After about seven months, Virat Kohli, who landed on the field, could not strike with the bat. Played a total of 13 balls and scored 14 runs. He could not send the ball outside the boundary even once, but he made up for the failure of batting on the captaincy front.
Aggression is the hallmark of Virat Kohli and he showed the same quality while defending the score of 163 runs. Johnny Bairstow, who came to the England ground with an ODI century against Australia, also looked in rhythm in Dubai. Luck was also with him. His and Manish Pandey's pair got so frozen that the match started leaning towards Hyderabad.
The challenge before Virat was double. This pair also had to break and runs were also to be stopped. Instead of saving the strike bowlers like Yuzvendra Chahal for the last over, Virat planted them at the front and as a result, Chahal managed to get three important wickets. Chahal gave the credit of Vijay Shankar's wicket to the captain. According to Chahal, Virat advised him to throw googly.
Yuzvendra Chahal
Virat Kohli gave the credit of the victory to Chahal. He was also voted Man of the Match. The wicket on which even the top spinner Rashid Khan was having trouble rolling the ball, in the words of Virat, there 'Chahal turned the match'.
Hyderabad's top scorer Bairstow's wicket was the turning point of the match. Having won three lives, Bairstow played the wrong shot at the crucial moment and his gills were shattered. Chahal brought the excitement of his team to the sky by dismissing Vijay Shankar on the next ball.
Devdutt Padikkal
The credit for the victory may be in the bowlers' account, but Devdutt Padikkal managed to grab attention. For a team that has seen Chris Gayle's left hand for a long time, a left-handed batsman can achieve the same brightness as the stars in the first match, this is no less amazing.
Devdutt, who came in after scoring runs in first-class cricket, continued his brilliant form. Discussions about his shot selection and bat swing have started. Devdutt, who scored 56 runs, was the top scorer in Bangalore.
AB de Villiers
51 runs in 30 balls. 'Omar, 36 years old, did not play much cricket at the moment and if there is young cricket in the face, then such a start is going to be happy.' This is the opinion of de Villiers regarding his performance.
Cricket critics will also agree with this. De Villiers started well, but after setting his eyes, he came into the rhythm. He reminded him of his old days by hitting sixes in two consecutive balls in Sandeep Sharma's over. For other teams, their style is a bell of danger.
Navdeep Saini and Shivam Dubey
If there is no big score on the scoreboard, then pressure on the bowlers is inevitable but Navdeep Saini and Shivam Dubey do not get scattered in the difficult situation. Both bowlers were also economical and managed to take two wickets on important occasions.
