IPL 2022: Biggest Compliment for Dinesh Karthik, ‘he is ICE-COOL as MS Dhoni’ says Faf Du Plessis
RCB beat KKR Highlights – Dinesh Karthik SUPER-COOL: In RCB’s successful run-chase of 128 Karthik was held back. He came at number seven and finished off the chase with an unbeaten 14 off just seven balls.
The thrilling three-wicket win was also Bangalore’s first victory of the competition.
“Very happy (with the win). Close, small-margins games are very important at the start. Chasing a small score, we just tried to be positive and not leave it late but very good bowling from their (KR) seamers,” observed Du Plessis.
Talking about the difference in conditions from the match on Sunday and the one on Wednesday,
Du Plessis remarked, “The ball swung a little more earlier but today there was seam and bounce. Two-three days ago, it was 200 and today it was 130. We would like to be more convincing…The runs were never a problem. We just needed to have wickets in hand.”
