New Delhi: Virat Kohli’s Team RCB, Who Came Out To Bat First Under The 35th Match Of IPL, Started Raining Runs As Soon As They Arrived. Alam Was That The Opening Batsmen Together Crossed The 100-Run Mark In 11 Overs. Captain Kohli Scored 53 Runs In 41 Balls Hitting 6 Fours, One Six.
Padikkal And Kohli Together Scored 111 Runs For 13 Overs, But After The Dismissal Of Captain Virat Kohli, The Team Could Score Only 156 Runs For 20 Overs. CSK Bowlers Played A Big Role In Stopping The Pace Of RCB’s Runs. When The RCB Batsmen Were Creating Trouble, Then CSK Captain Dhoni Decided To Change The Strategy.
Dhoni Said After The Match, Dwayne Bravo Had To Be Brought Into The Attack And I Asked Him To Bowl Six Different Deliveries. I Call Him My Brother And We Always Fight About Whether He Should Bowl Slower. I Told Him That You Can Bowl Slow To Dodge The Batsman, But Now That Everyone Knows That Bravo Is Known For His Slow Delivery, Why Not Dodge The Batsman With Different Balls.

Be It Slow Or Length Or Yorker. The Batsman Should Be Confused By Bowling Different Balls. Bravo Did The Same And Made A Tremendous Comeback And Took 3 Wickets For 24 Runs In 4 Overs. Due To The Brilliant Bowling Of Bravo, RCB Were Restricted To 156 Runs. Bravo Was Adjudged Man Of The Match.
Dhoni Said, We Were Worried About The Dew And We Saw That Last Season. The Way Padikkal Was Batting From One End, Jadeja’s Spell Was Crucial. I Told Moeen That He Would Bowl From One End During Drinks, But Then I Changed My Mind. I Decided Bravo Should Bowl Because The More You Delay Him, The Harder It Becomes. Four Overs Were Crucial In These Tough Conditions.
Chasing A Target Of 156 Runs In 18.1 Overs, CSK Beat RCB By 6 Wickets To Rise To The Top Of The Table. Ruturaj Gaikwad And Ambati Rayudu Scored 38 And 32 Runs Respectively For Chennai Super Kings. Faf Du Plessis Also Played A Crucial Innings Of 31 Runs While MS Dhoni And Suresh Raina Took The Team Across The Winning Line With The Win.
Dhoni Said, “Our Players Have Worked Hard And Understood Their Roles And Responsibilities. I Thought The Left-Right Combination Here Was Important With The Bat. We Bat Deep With A Lot Of Lefties And They Are All Good To Bat In Any Position, Which Is Why We Pushed Raina And Rayudu Down. Dwayne Bravo Said In A Post-Match Presentation, IPL Is The Toughest Competition In The World. Virat Was A Very Important Wicket And RCB Are A Big Team.
