On Saturday night, 18th May, RCB defeated CSK by 27 runs. In this match, RCB had set a target of 219 runs for CSK to win, although Chennai had to score only 201 runs to qualify for the playoffs, but the team failed to reach even this score. Chennai Super Kings could score only 191 runs after batting 20 overs and the team had to face defeat by 27 runs. After the end of the match, Mahendra Singh Dhoni is being blamed for the defeat of Chennai Super Kings. Actually, Dhoni had hit a six off the ball of Yash Dayal outside the stadium, due to which the ball had to be changed and from there the match was overturned. In fact, RCB captain Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli were demanding the umpires to change the ball for a long time. Actually, due to the rain that came during the start of the match, whenever the ball was going out of the boundary, the ball was coming out wet. In such a situation, the bowlers were finding it difficult to grip the ball. Dinesh Karthik also agreed to the same thing. The match changed because of that six by Dhoni – Dinesh Karthik RCB wicketkeeper batsman Dinesh Karthik also admitted that Dhoni’s six changed the match. “The best thing that happened today was that Dhoni hit the ball out of the ground, then we got a new ball which made it easier to bowl,” Karthik said in the RCB dressing room. When Dhoni lost the ball by hitting a six off the first ball of Yash Dayal and then the ball was changed, RCB benefited from it. Yash Dayal bowled the next 5 balls back of the hand slower. Since the ball was not wet, Yash Dayal was able to grip the ball well, which ultimately benefited RCB.

The last match was played on 23 March in which Chennai won and now the match between the two teams will be played on 18 May. RCB has won all its matches on May 18. Virat Kohli has scored runs in all the matches played on May 18 and this includes two centuries and one half-century. His jersey number is also 18. This will be a very fun match. However, there is also a possibility of rain. The longer the match, the higher will be RCB’s chances of qualifying. The shorter the match, the more difficult it will be for them to qualify. Here’s the video: Aakash Chopra further said, ‘Today is 18th May and Virat Kohli has a special relationship with this date. He has scored runs in all the matches he has played on May 18. All eyes will be on Virat Kohli in this match. Will Jacques is not there and Glenn Maxwell will have to perform well in his place. His role will be very big in this match. He is such a player who can hit sixes continuously and change the course of the match. He won the match for Australia in one leg. His performance so far in IPL 2024 has been very poor but he would definitely like to leave his mark in the upcoming match. The third player I will focus on is Cameron Green. If the match is of 10 overs then he will be required to bowl one or two overs. Green can also hit sixes continuously. Let Faf do his job in…
