The Royal Challengers Bangalore is one of the big names in the Indian Premier League that enjoys a massive fan following. Despite not winning a single IPL trophy there is no drop in the following. The team gave its best to win the trophy. In 2016, it came very close to the trophy and lost the finals to SRH.
The lack of a dependable batsman who can serve the team as a good finisher has been a great concern for the team. The team had always banked on the potential of former skipper Virat Kohli and Mr. 360 AB de Villiers. After the latter announced retirement and the former left the captaincy, fans were worried.
Looks like RCB fans' worries have come to an end with yesterday's match. Star player Dinesh Karthik went into finisher mode once again and took his side to the victory. He has proved to everyone that cricket is still left in him and he can be dangerous on any given day.
When RCB was in deep trouble by losing early wickets, Dinesh Karthik had come to the rescue of the team and helped RCB to register a win. He played a stunning knock of 44 in just 23 deliveries. He was supported by Shahbaz Ahmed who scored 45 runs.
Despite the low target, the match between RCB and Rajasthan Royals is not less than any edge-of-the-seat entertainer. Chasing down a low target of 170, RCB batsmen had a tough time with RR bowlers breathing fire.
Former RCB player Chahal and Trent Boult led the bowling attack and claimed wickets at regular intervals. By the time Dinesh Karthik entered the field, the chances of RCB winning the game were very low. But he had shifted the game towards RCB. His heroics made RCB win the high-intense match.
Dinesh Karthik's spectacular job as a finisher had started a new debate that he would have been in the T20 squad that played the T20- World Cup. The tournament had highlighted how India is depending highly on the top order. It also shed light on the importance of the finisher. It is no wonder if Dinesh Karthik is taken back into the team.
