After Royal Challengers Bangalore<\/a> defeated Lucknow Super Giants<\/a> on Thursday night, skipper Faf du Plessis<\/a> reveals the name of his \u2018trump card\u2019 in the post-match interview. He feels the Indian bowler named Harshal Patel is a quality death bowler and he can soak the pressure well.<\/p>\n

Faf du Plessis was impressed with Harshal Patel<\/a>\u2018s bowling, especially in death overs. Harshal has been one of the important players for RCB since he joined the team as his bowling in the pressure situation and wicket-taking ability are exceptional. In the eliminator match between RCB and LSG which was played on Thursday at Eden Gardens, Kolkata, pacer Harshal Patel bowled in the right areas with the right pace to help RCB book their spot in \u2018Qualifier 2\u2019 of IPL 2022.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is a special card I can pick. He is a high-pressure time bowler and I can go to him every single time I\u2019m under pressure,\u201d said skipper Faf du Plessis in the post-match interview on Star Sports Network.<\/p>\n

It was a nail-biting finish to the game on Thursday. Despite scoring 207 runs in the first innings RCB wasn\u2019t looking comfortable as KL Rahul<\/a> and Deepak Hooda<\/a> were taking the game away from them. But, thanks to Harshal Patel and Josh Hazlewood, who gave fewer runs in death overs and took important wickets to lead the team (RCB) to victory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
