Rahul is one freak of a player when he gets going. That was some great hitting at the end.

SRH's pathetic collapse masked the same underlying problems of RCB over the years. They still lack death bowlers, Steyn, Saini and Umesh are suited for the Powerplay and middle overs and they leak runs at the end. The only decent death bowlers RCB really have are Udana and Morris, who are on the bench. You can't select players to bowl at the death when they're on the bench. Dube's medium pace offbreaks obviously can't cover the absence of an actual death bowler for RCB. Could've gone with Udana if Morris was still injured.

Now this is the RCB we all know :D

But seriously, no qualms when KL bats like that. What a player - love watching him bat. After those two dropped catches by no less than Kohli, he was absolutely brutal.

If RCB needs to have a chance, they need to get 7-8 rpo in the powerplay without losing too many and then feast on the slower bowlers with the dew kicking in.[DOUBLEPOST=1600963918][/DOUBLEPOST]LOL . why dont VK come out. It was the perfect opportunity. Josh Phillippe experiment has bombed like anything

Of course I miss watching a special player give a special performance. :facepalm

Looks like Bangalore might be in all sorts of trouble. AbD needs to give a really good performance.

What can he do by himself? At least there was spark while he was there. He's not going to die wondering like KKR yesterday and CSK the day prior. That's his style. And he has played that mature innings a gazillion times. His chutzpah and charisma overshadows it.

Of course he is blameless. Today's result is mostly down to Kohli's downright terrible captaincy. Using Sundar as a sixth bowler is pathetic, he must be bowling more for India FFS!

New season. Same BS.

I cannot remember a bigger failure repeatedly being in the top job. This is Kohli's 10th season as captain. 10th season!

Moeen Ali not playing in Dubai. The purchase of Finch. Steyn as the lead bowler among overseas picks. Just unreal.
