IPL 2022: Dinesh Karthik Stars In Royal Challengers Bangalore's Come From Behind Win Over Rajasthan Royals
NDTV
IPL 2022: Dinesh Karthik played an unbeaten knock of 44 as RCB defeated RR by four wickets at Wankhede Stadium on Tuesday.
A sensational display of hitting from Dinesh Karthik and Shahbaz Ahmed helped Royal Challengers Bangalore recover from a mini batting collapse and record a four-wicket win over Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League on Tuesday. Jos Buttler hammered half a dozen sixes in his unbeaten 70 off 47 balls as Rajasthan Royals grafted their way to 169 for three after RCB opted to bowl.
Losing four wickets in a space off 11 balls, RCB were in all sorts of trouble at 62 for four before Karthik (44 not out off 23 balls) and Ahmed (45 off 26) took the game away from the opposition with a 67-run partnership off just 33 balls.
Karthik eventually got the team home in 19.1 overs. It was RCB's second win in three games while it was the first loss of the season for the Royals after consecutive victories.
At 55 for no loss in the seventh over, RCB were on course in the run chase before the game turned on its head with the Royals taking a flurry of wickets.
The wily Yuzvendra Chahal (2/15), playing against a team he played for seven seasons, was largely responsible for the RCB collapse. He forced an error from Faf du Plessis (29), who mistimed a leg break to be caught at long-on, before cleaning up left-hander David Willey (0) with a classical leg-break.
