Royal Challengers Bangalore IPL 2024: RCB, captained by Faf Du Plessis, finally got its second win. The team got this victory after losing 6 consecutive matches, so its taste is even sweeter. On Thursday, amazing enthusiasm and aggression was seen among the players who used to come out of the field with bowed shoulders and slow gait. Meanwhile, after the victory of RCB, it trended a lot on 25th. After all, what is that reason, which has a special connection with RCB’s victory by 25, let us know.
RCB won the first match of IPL on March 25.
Actually, this year’s IPL started from March 22. The first match was played between RCB and CSK on this day. In this, Chennai Super Kings defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore by 6 wickets. After this, the RCB team entered the field to play its second match on 25 March. On this day his match was with Punjab Kings. RCB opened its account by winning the match by 4 wickets, but no one knew that RCB would have to wait so long for the second win. The team kept losing matches continuously. This time, the first few matches were won by the home team, but RCB was losing the matches at home also. They lost 6 consecutive matches one after the other and when the hopes started dying down, then came the 25th, but this time it was the month of April. Royal Challengers Bangalore registered their second win against Sunrisers Hyderabad on 25 April.
Hopes of going to playoffs still alive
RCB had to wait for a full month for their second win. When it returned again on 25th, the team registered victory. Thursday’s match was also important for RCB because if it lost this match, the team would have been completely out of the race for the playoffs. Although it is still very difficult to reach the top 4, there are definitely some possibilities. But for this, the winning streak started by RCB will have to be continued continuously and if even one match is lost then the game will be over. Not only this, the results of the matches of other teams should also be such that RCB benefits, only then things will be resolved.
RCB beat SRH by 35 runs
Meanwhile, if we talk about the match, RCB captain Faf du Plessis won the toss and decided to bat first. The team started the batting on a high note, it is another matter that the run rate was restricted to some extent in the middle, but in the end the team crossed the 200 mark. This score was not at all safe due to the way Sunrisers Hyderabad team was batting, but RCB bowlers strengthened their hold on the match by giving shocks to SRH in the beginning. In the end, chasing the score of 206, the entire SRH team could score only 171 runs for 8 wickets and RCB won the match by 35 runs.
