RCB Vs PBKS – Match 27 | Royal Challengers Bangalore Won by 24 Runs IPL 2023
Royal Challengers Bangalore Won by 24 Runs
Mohammad Siraj is the Player of the Match
Mohammad Siraj: “First ball the length was a bit short and then I sensed the need to bowl full to get some swing and that was the plan for the first wicket. The lockdown was really important for me, I worked on my plans, my fitness, and my bowling and it’s all paying dividends now”
Sam Curran, Skipper: ” I thought we bowled well as a group. Credit to Faf and Virat for the way they played, but I think we were not good enough with the bat. They bowled well, but we lost far too many wickets, and a couple of run-outs as well. The wicket was good today, we’ll probably look back at a couple of dismissals and regret it, but we’ll come back on Saturday. We are playing in Mumbai on Saturday, it’s a good wicket out there and we’re excited to play over there.”
Virat Kohli, Skipper: ” The table can’t define your team. It’s towards game 13 or 14 we can try and focus on what we need to do. Faf batted really well on that pitch. His innings ensured we had that 20-30 extra at the end. The pitch was very rough underneath, there was not enough water there I guess. There were hardly any sixes hit off the back foot against the spinners. The strategy was to bat deep to have a crack at 190. Told them (the bowlers) that the target was more than enough. Cannot afford to take the game deep, especially when they lost 6-7 wickets. The batting lineups are deeper, but we also have options in our bowling. At the halfway stage, the talk was to take the game to the opposition and you kind of break the game open when you pick up 4 wickets in the powerplay.”
