Royal Challengers Bangalore defeated Chennai Super Kings by 2 runs on Thursday. After this victory, captain Rajat Patidar said that the match against Chennai was very tough and also praised the performance of his team's batsmen in the match. After this win, Royal Challengers Bangalore has reached the top spot in the points table. On the other hand, the Chennai team is at the bottom of the table after losing their ninth match in IPL 2025.
After the match, Rajat Patidar shared his thoughts on the win and said, "It was a tough match, but credit to them for the way the batsmen batted. The way the bowlers showed courage was tremendous. Apart from this, he also praised Yash Dayal, who batted brilliantly in the 20th over, saving 15 runs in front of experienced batsmen like Ravindra Jadeja and MS Dhoni.
"He is the main bowler of the team, he is a specialist in the death overs. The idea of giving Yash the last over was clear. He did well last year as well and I am happy for him. I also had faith in Suyash, so far he has been bowling good overs for RCB. It was a 50-50 decision, but I backed my bowler and he did well. "
He also praised Romario Shepherd's smashing 14-ball 53 and Lungi Ngidi's three-wicket haul in four overs, who was the top-performer in his department for RCB in the match.
"It's not easy to hit big sixes straight, they have the power and skill. I'm enjoying his long sixes. Lungi Ngidi is a very experienced bowler and he has played a lot of white-ball cricket and I trust him. Being at the top is positive. We are not aiming for qualification, three more matches are important and we will try to give our best in all three matches. "
