RR thrashed RCB'S only possibilities of going to the final by overpowering them by 7 wickets. After successively losing the toss RR's Skipper Samson finally won the toss and elected to bowl first. Kohli was looking ferocious against RR when he hit Boult for a six towards the deep square leg but was soon dismissed by his most prominent weakness which is the ball outside the off-stump which was a short ball that Kohli misjudged and was caught by Samson behind.

But the fall of the wicket of Kohli was ineffectual against RCB as Patidar had his onslaught of runs and scored 58 off 42 and had a significant partnership with Du Plessis of 70 runs. Maxwell could have been the aggressor for RCB but was soon dismissed in the fine leg region by playing an unorthodox shot(his favourite).

Prasidh and McCoy proved to be very crucial for RR's bowling lineup as they rattled the RCB'S middle and lower order which comprised of dippers, yorkers and slower balls. 

The carnage was yet to come as Buttler levelled the record of Kohli of hitting the most centuries in a single tournament (4) and RCB had virtually lost the match when neither Siraj nor Shahbaz were able to give a breakthrough.

  Faf's Army eliminated LSG from the playoffs as they defeated them by 14 runs. The promising and lethal Mohsin Khan earned the right to make LSG fans go ballistic as he dismissed Faf on duck but the wicket of Du Plessis was just the commencement of a fairy tale for a promising and youthful cricketer.  Credits: https://images.hindustantimes.com/img/2022/05/26/1600x900/patidar_1653539318394_1653539387127.PNG Patidar made a record in IPL by becoming the only uncapped player in the tournament to hit a century in playoffs. He had a formidable partnership with Virat Kohli which comprised hooks and drives towards the offside region.

Kohli had a mediocre inning in which hit 25 off 24 balls and didn't look threatening throughout his whole innings. Maxwell and Lomror both failed to put up big...

SRH VS PBKS

 Srh Can Finally Take a deep breath as they've found their core players and the right team combination to speed up their chariot of wins. Umran has certainly improved his line length along with his menacing raw pace. Pooran has been consistent with his runs. Tripathi's big-hitting along with his perfect timing is a knock on the selector's door for the T20 World Cup. Punjab's Livingstone too has brought his Big Hitting to the Indian Premier League as he primarily attacked Suchith and used his quick wit against Umran's Quick Pace by hitting boundaries towards the third man and long on. Dhawan attacked his Indian Counterpart Bhuvneshwar Kumar towards the Mid on but was defeated by his swing by playing towards the mid on hoping to hit a boundary. Pooran used his quick decision skills and shut the mouths of commentators by taking a review for caught behind and dismissing talented but inconsistent Prabhsimran Singh. Livingstone once again used his quick wit by playing aga...
