Big names, but no show for RCB once again

The match no.14 of IPL 2019 played between Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore ended up with a victory of 7 wickets for Rajasthan.

Right from the toss, RCB lost everything except the brilliant knock by the Chhota Gayle(Parthiv Patel) of RCB.

Virat and Parthiv started well for RCB and scored 49 runs before the googly from Shreyas Gopal which thrown off the bails of Virat Kohli.

Soon, the big man ABD was also dismissed on a googly by Gopal.

Hetmyer once again disappointed the franchise with just one run in 9 balls.

At the end, RCB reached to a defending total of 158 runs with the power hitting of Stoinis and Ali and thus put the target of 159 runs for the Rajasthani boys.

In response, the Rajasthani openers, Rahane and Buttler started aggressively scoring 60 runs in 7.3 overs for the first wicket.



Buttler, once again played an important knock of of 59 runs for his team and the rest was well done by Smith and Rahul Tripathi.

Shreyas Gopal, the big fish hunter today(Virat, ABD & Hetmyer), became the player of the match for his excellent spell of 12-3 of 4 overs.

Finally, RR would be happy with two points in hand but the search for RCB will still continue.

BCCI came up with various surprise announcements on 15th April (Monday) while declaring the 15 man squad for the World cup 2019 which is going to be held in England. The top order of India remained the same as expected with Rohit, Shikhar and Kohli , however KL Rahul got the seat booked as the reserve opener. Rahul's ability to bat in the middle order and his current form in IPL proved to be enough for the selectors to take the decision. The inclusion of Dinesh Karthik and Vijay Shankar in the squad was the big news there as the no.4 slot is still a matter of big controversy before the world cup as none of the batsman has been able to reserve the seat with their performance. Major drops  : However, the young hitting icon of India, Rishabh Pant , has been overlooked by the BCCI as the second wicket keeper inspite of Pant being the first choice wicket keeper in Tests for India and to the surprise Dinesh Karthik has been given the preference over Rishabh Pant desp...
