One of RCB‘s foremost bowlers, Harshal Patel, is just three wickets away from holding 100 wickets in T20 cricket. Patel has had a fantastic season and has fetched 19 wickets in 15 matches. Patel has always delivered in pressure situations with an economy of under eight and a strike rate of 15.89. The medium-pacer is known for his variations and especially for his slower deliveries. Royal Challengers Bangalore tweeted about the milestone and hopes he will achieve this landmark in the Qualifier 2 to take RCB to the IPL Finale.
