New Delhi. When the team is sweating on the field for victory and struggling to save one run, then you can turn into a losing game with the help of correct understanding, experience and luck connection. Something similar happened in the Chinnaswamy Stadium where a clever trick of a chiku completely changed the map of the match.
Chasing a target of 206 runs, Rajasthan Royals were in a very strong position after scoring 132 runs for 3 wickets in 13 overs, when the camera went to Virat Kohli who was standing on the long off. Virat made such a gesture to Captain Rajat Patidar, after which Rajasthan’s innings completely collapsed. This was the master stroke of Virat which gave the first win on the grounds of Bangalore this season.
Virat’s gesture became turning point
The bet was coming out of the hand and Royal Challengers Bangalore was in danger of another defeat in his house when Virat, who played an innings of 70 runs, did what the map of the match changed. After 13 overs, Virat told captain Rajat Patidar from the boundary to change the ball because there was no action in the ball due to dew. Virat told Rajat that the changed ball will grip, so bring Krunal Pandya on bowling. The ball changed and the match for Rajasthan also changed from here. Krunal opened the door of victory by dismissing Nitish Rana and later the work of locking it was done by Josh Hazlewood. After changing the ball, Rajasthan was able to score only 62 runs in just 7 overs and 6 wickets fell.
Hazelwood’s Hallabol
Man of the Match Hazelwood made a significant contribution in winning Royal Challengers Bangalore by bowling enthusiastically. In the first spell, Hazlewood dismissed Yashasvi Jaiswal and gave a shock to Rajasthan because Jaiswal was batting brilliantly at that time. When the match caught in the final over, the captain again caught the ball Hazlewood and the bowler dismissed Hetmore in the 17th over and broke Rajasthan’s back by dismissing Dhruv Jurail and Orcher in the 19th over. Hazelwood took 4 wickets for 33 runs in 4 overs and also played an important role in taking Bangalore to the top 4. Hazelwood has taken 16 wickets in 9 matches.
