Faf du Plessis looked in magnificent touch in the ongoing game against Chennai Super Kings. The Royal Challengers Bengaluru stepped up big time for his team and played a magnificent innings for his team when it mattered the most and lighted up the stage at M Chinnaswamy Stadium.

With the way Faf du Plessis was batting, he seemed all set for a big knock. However, he got run out in an unlucky way. It happened during the 13th game of the innings when Mitchell Santner bowled a tossed-up delivery to Rajat Patidar, who hit it back to the bowler.
Mitchell Santner got a fingertip and there was a deviation as the ball went to hit the stumps at bowlers end. Faf du Plessis didn't ground his bat and umpire Michael Gough after several looks declared the batter out to jolt the the Royal Challengers Bengaluru fans.
Faf du Plessis on his way back didn't look happy as he shrugged his head away and walked back to the dug-out. Virat Kohli too looked angry and so did Rajat Patidar as the Royal Challengers Bengaluru batter was given out at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
