Virat Kohli is back in form but at what cost. His 53 balls 58 on a good surface may have put smile on his fans’ faces but his team faced a heavy defeat yet again in the tournament.
Gujarat Titans won the toss and elected to bowl first. Making his debut for Gujarat Titans, Pradeep Sangawan sent the RCB skipper back to the pavilion in the early overs.
Rajat Patidar (52 off 32) and Maxell (33 off 18) gave the momentum to RCB from one side. However, despite half century, Kohli struggled to maintain good strike rate. Down the order, Lomror gave the finishing touch with his 8 balls 16.
Gujarat Titans had steady beginning of their innings. 51 runs partnership for the first wicket ensured that the team will advance with good intent. Down the order, 79 runs partnership between Miller and Tewatia sealed the match for Gujarat Titans.
