Du Plessis, excited after the victory, said these things

Faf du Plessis said, ‘We want to play that style of cricket, RCB talks about playing bold and we are proud that now we can do that by really putting our performance together.’

Talking about the team’s performance, he said, ‘From a batting perspective, we have been around the 200 figures in 6-7 matches in a row (five out of the last seven), so they are batting really well. And then in bowling, I think in the first five or six games, we failed to take wickets, and now this is the third time (in a row) we have bowled a team out, so it is a good effort.

Talking about the match, RCB, batting first against DC, scored 187 runs for 9 wickets in 20 overs. Rajat Patidar played a half-century inning of 52 runs. In response, Delhi Capitals team was all out after scoring 140 runs in 19.1 overs. Akshar Patel scored 57 runs for the team, but he failed to win.
