It was Yet Another Faf and Maxi Show for RCB
In the IPL of 2023 RCB top order have scored the 70% of the total score and particularly Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell have shine out in most of the occasion. Last night on double decker sunday, the afternoon match between RCB vs RR was yet another Faf and Maxi show. 55 of 44 by Faf and 54 of 33 by Maxwell set the tone of the game and took the match after the very slow start by the openers.
Eventually RCB ended up with a per score of 171 in 20 overs which in the beginning seemed a very low total. All thanks to the RCB bowling unit that sums up RR for just 59 for 10 in 10.3 overs.
Anuj Rawat – A busy man for RCB
Anuj came to the crease after the quick dismissal of Lomror and Kartik. He pulled up a stunning shots in the last over of RCB innings and end up scoring 29 of 11 balls with 2 sixes and 3 fours and help RCB to put a total of 170+ which was seemed 160 or under in the beginning of the last over.
Rawat’s heroic didn’t end here, during the RR innings, captain of RR Sanju Samson missed a shoot and it went up in the air. Anuj grab that running and diving catch. Apart from that he made a look so cool runout when Ashwin and Hetmyer mixed up in running between the wicket. He impersonate MSD heroic from behind the stump.
