RCB registers an embarrassing record in the history of IPL after dramatic loss against LSG

The RCB vs LSG game at M Chinnaswamy Stadium was a dramatic match in IPL history, breaking multiple records and having a change of momentum in every delivery. LSG chose to bowl first, and despite Virat Kohli’s quick 50-run stand, he was eventually dismissed by Amit Mishra. Faf du Plessis smashed the longest six of IPL 2023, and along with Glenn Maxwell, attacked the leg-spin bowlers, setting a massive target of 213 runs for LSG. LSG lost three wickets in the powerplay, but Marcus Stoinis and later Ayush Badoni and Nicholas Pooran led a counter-attack, bringing the game back to a close finish. The game’s momentum shifted when Harshal Patel took two wickets in the final over, but LSG ultimately won with a quick single after a ‘Mankad-miss’ moment.

While scoring more than 200 runs in the first inning, Royal Challengers Bangalore suffers the most losses (5). (most by any team)

RCB Batting Highlights – 

LSG opted to bowl first, considering the pitch was dry and could benefit in the second innings for batting. Skipper Faf and veteran batter Virat Kohli stepped out as usual openers but performed unusually.

Virat’s fierce dominance was witnessed from the start as the veteran Indian batter geared up for a quick 50-run stand against LSG. Having successfully scored his half-ton, Virat Kohli finally had to walk off the pavilion after experienced spinner Amit Mishra came into the bowling attack. Faf du Plessis on the other hand was playing at a decent strike rate but the fans hope that the RCB captain might shift his gear from taking singles to hitting between the wickets.
