RCB’s Final Innings
The Royal Challengers Bengaluru ended their 18-year drought after defeating the Punjab Kings in the finals. Virat Kohli, as always, displayed his prowess as a batter and showed how much T20 cricket has left in him. He smashed 43 runs in the finals. Apart from Virat Kohli’s 43, none of the batters of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru batters could create an impact during the finals. With Mayank Aggarwal (24), Rajat Patidar (25), Liam Livingstone (25), and Jitesh Sharma’s (24) contribution, RCB could reach the total of 190 with a loss of 9 wickets. With the early loss of Phil Salt, Virat Kohli tried to stabilize the innings but eventually lost his wicket to Azmatullah Omarzai.
