Chasing 201 against a strong Gujarat Titans attack, RCB openers had to give a good start, and Faf du Plessis provided just that.

In all the other IPL matches, Virat Kohli has looked in total control right from the word go. However, in the ongoing clash, he struggled against Azmatullah Omarzai and Faf had to play the aggressive role.

Du Plessis takes down Omarzai

With the required rate just over 10, du Plessis decided to accelerate quickly and targeted the Afghan pacer in his second over itself.

He started off with with a mind-boggling six over deep mid wicket, wherein his bottom-hand came into play. The next ball was deposited into the long-off stand as Faf delivered a knockout blow. However, the short of the over came in the last ball, when the RCB leader shuffled across and ramped a length delivery well over the fine leg region.

16 runs came in the last three balls as pressure was released by du Plessis. The joy lasted just a few more minutes as Sai Kishore, who was introduced into the attack, got the prized wicket of RCB captain, who batted superbly for his 12-ball 24.

Talking about the match, GT managed to post a solid 200/3, courtesy some sublime hitting from Sai Sudharsan (84) and Shahrukh Khan (58).
