“My role is to achieve whatever we can in the backend of the game and try to do whatever is required for the team, either setting a target or helping win the game. So, that is what I will be focussing on.”
With an unexpected start to the campaign where the Challengers had to bite the dust as Punjab Kings edged past them in a high-octane thriller, Faf and company will be raring to get back to winning ways as they take on the Knights for their second fray of the tournament.
RCB pumped out some solid batting in the IPL opener as Faf du Plessis led the ranks with some crazy strikes after a slow start to his innings while Virat Kohli and Dinesh Karthik crafted important cameos to allow the Challengers to garner 205 in the first innings.
Despite a momentous total on the cards, the Challengers lost the narrative in the latter half as PBKS’ Odean Smith and Bhanuka Rajapaksa went ballistic, taking out the RCB bowlers mercilessly.
