IPL 2024: MI VS RCB Turning point of match: RCB lost not because of Mumbai’s explosive batting but because of this, read

Mumbai Indians registered a big win over RCB by 7 wickets in just 15.3 overs. IPL 2024: Mumbai Indians VS Royal Challengers Bengaluru Turning point of match: Mumbai Indians registered a big win over RCB by 7 wickets in just 15.3 overs. Chasing the target of 197 runs given by RCB, Mumbai achieved this spectacular victory on the strength of Ishan Kishan, Rohit Sharma and explosive batsman Suryakumar Yadav. Suryakumar batted at number three and scored 52 runs in just 19 balls. Mumbai’s batting had a very good start and Ishan Kishan laid the foundation of Mumbai’s victory by playing explosive innings of fours and sixes. Whereas in bowling, Jasprit Bumrah gave continuous shocks to RCB by taking 5 wickets. MI VS RCB Turning point of match: What was the turning point of the match? Batting first, RCB gave a big target of 196 runs to Mumbai Indians. The opening pair of Mumbai Indians, who came to chase the target, created the mood. Ishan Kishan started the batting with a six in the second over and then created a storm. Ishaan scored 69 runs in 34 balls with the help of 5 sixes and 7 fours. And Rohit scored 38 runs in 24 balls with the help of 3 sixes and 3 fours. There was a partnership of 101 runs between the two openers which made the match one-sided. Suryakumar, who came after Ishaan’s dismissal, showed special fireworks of fours and sixes to the spectators at Wankhede. After 3 months, Surya showed his form and scored 52 runs in just 19 balls with the help of 4 sixes and 5 fours. After this, Hardik also scored 21 runs in 6 balls with the help of 3 sixes and gave the team victory by hitting the winning six. But the reason for RCB’s defeat was not the batting of Mumbai Indians but the poor bowling of its own bowlers. No bowler was successful in taking wickets and all were washed out from the line. If the bowlers had taken even one wicket at the right time, perhaps Mumbai Indians would not have played so fearlessly. And even if he had played like this, there would have been more chances of him getting out and RCB being in the match.

IPL 2024: Giving the example of Kohli’s innings, Aakash Chopra said a big thing about RCB’s mistakes and KKR’s explosive batting.

KKR batsmen thrashed Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) bowlers. RCB and Aakash Chopra. (Image Source: IPL-Instagram) Indian Premier League 2024: Former Indian cricketer and commentator Aakash Chopra believes that Royal Challengers Bangalore (rcb) Sunil Narine in the tenth match of the ongoing IPL 2024 played at M Chinnaswamy Stadium on March 29 (Sunil Narine), due to which they had to face a 7-wicket defeat against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). Aakash Chopra further said that Virat Kohli scored 83 runs in 59 balls, while KKR had scored 85 runs in 5.5 overs, so this shows how fast they had started. The cricket expert also said that the KKR batsmen thrashed the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) bowlers. RCB could not plan properly against Sunil Narine: Aakash Chopra Aakash Chopra said that RCB bowlers needed to bowl bouncers and yorkers repeatedly against Sunil Narine, in which they were not successful and they had to bear the brunt of this with a seven-wicket defeat against KKR. Aakash Chopra said in a video on his YouTube channel: “When Sunil Narayan opens, the blueprint is very clear – ‘Either I will be there or you will be there’. He plays in the same style, tries to hit sixes. Everyone knows that to stop them you need to bowl bouncers and yorkers again and again, but if you are not successful in it, like Bengaluru did not get success in the first six overs, then they take the match out of your control. Takes away.” All the bowlers of RCB were beaten badly He added, “He was also accompanied by Phil Salt. Phil Salt had given away 18 runs in the very first over. He was fantastic. To put things in context, the opposition bowled well, but Virat Kohli took 59 balls to reach 83 runs and Kolkata had already scored 85 runs in 5.5 overs. Be it Alzarri Joseph, Mohammad Siraj or Yash Dayal, everyone was beaten badly.”

Lungi Ngidi has taken 25 wickets in 14 IPL matches and obviously the team will miss him. However, the franchise is hopeful that Fraser-McGurk’s inclusion will bring new energy to the team. South Australia’s Fraser McGurk is known for his aggressive batting style and has caught everyone’s attention with his batting. He came into limelight when he broke AB de Villiers’ record of the fastest century by scoring a century in just 29 balls. Harry Brook is also out for Delhi Ngidi’s absence due to injury after Brook’s withdrawal from the tournament is a big blow for Delhi Capitals. The English batsman had recently told that due to family reasons he will not play IPL and will spend time with his family. Brook reveals that his grandmother died after a long illness, and he wants to be close to his family members. After the exit of these two foreign players from the tournament, Enrique Norkhia and Jhay Richardson now seem to have a place in the playing XI. Both the frontline bowlers can create problems for the opposition team by opening DC’s bowling. However, Norkhia also returned to competitive cricket last week for the first time since September 2023. Also read: Captain Rohit Sharma will revive Prithvi Shaw’s career!
