Faf du Plessis, the captain of Royal Challengers Bangalore, hit a huge six of 115 meters at Chinnaswamy stadium during the game against Lucknow Super Giants.
Ravi Bishnoi, a leg-spinner for LSG, came on to bowl his last over in the 15th over of the game. He had only given up 19 runs in the three overs before that. Bishnoi’s first two balls were good, and only one run was given away. Du Plessis hit the third ball for a six, but the next one was even better because the ball went outside the stadium.
Smartly, du Plessis took a single off the next ball and gave a strike to Glenn Maxwell, who joined the party and hit the last ball from Bishnoi over the boundary for another six. The bowler gave up 20 runs in the over, giving him 0/39 in four overs and no wickets for the night. Du Plessis kept hitting sixes until the next over when he reached 50.
LSG won the coin flip and chose to play first. RCB got off to a great start because Kohli was in great form, and in the powerplay, RCB got to 54 without losing a wicket. Kohli went on to earn his fifty, but Amit Mishra got him out when his score was 61 off 44.
Glenn Maxwell came in at number three, and RCB didn’t let up on the gas. By the end of 16 overs, the Australians had scored 22 runs off 15 balls. At the time, RCB was doing well at 146/1. For LSG, every bowler was expensive. Avesh Khan gave up 33 runs in three overs, and Krunal Pandya was hit for 29 runs in four overs.
Bangalore is in seventh place on the points table, losing one and winning one. On the other hand, LSG is in third place because they have won two of their three games.
