Match review

Jos Buttler finished the innings in a flurry. He showed us why he has been the best batsman in this years tournament.

A magnificent innings from the Englishman. His 4th century in the Tata IPL 2022. He finished the innings off in style, ending on 106* to knock fan favorite team RCB out.

Sanjnu Samson and Yashasvi Jaiswal played their parts as well. Jaiswal scored 21(13) whereas Hasaranga again, got rid of Samson. This time for 23.

But, it was too little too late as Buttler had already taken the match away from the grasp of RCB.

Virat Kohli was out very early in the innings but Faf and Patidar steadied the innings. The latter went on to score 58 runs before holding out in the deep. Wickets started to tumble as RR restricted RCB to a sub-par score of 157/8.

Both Prasidh Krishnna and Obed McCoy bowled brilliantly, picking up 6 wickets together for just 45 runs.
