RCB has qualified for the playoffs of IPL 2024.
Yesterday on May 18, the 68th match of the ongoing IPL was played at the Chinnaswamy Stadium between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings (RCB vs CSK). Let us tell you that in this match, while chasing the target of 219 runs given by RCB, CSK needed 17 runs in the last over to make it to the playoffs.
MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja were present on strike from CSK side, while fast bowler Yash Dayal came to bowl this over from RCB side. However, after hitting a 110-metre six on the first ball bowled to Dhoni, Dayal not only dismissed Dhoni on the next ball, but also conceded only 1 run on the next five balls and played an important role in taking his team to the playoffs.
On the other hand, in the match, Faf du Plessis, who played captaincy for RCB and scored 54 runs and also took two excellent catches, was given the Player of the Match award. So after receiving this award, Faf showed such a gesture which is now being praised a lot.
This gesture of Faf du Plessis is being praised
Let us tell you that after the end of the match between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings, Faf du Plessis said during the post match – It was obvious in the match that they (CSK) had come a little close. MS Dhoni was there, so he was determined not to let it go. He (Yash Dayal) has bowled like this many times, but this day was very difficult for the bowlers.
Faf further said- I dedicate my player of the match award to Yash Dayal. The way he bowled tonight was incredible. A team player who was completely new to the role bowled well under pressure, and deserves POTM.
