Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) batter Rajat Patidar played another magnificent innings for his team in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 against the Delhi Capitals (DC) in the ongoing game. The match between the teams is taking place at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
Rajat Patidar, who came to bat at No.4, played a stellar innings for his team and kept them in the driver's seat. The batter played a brutal innings and made sure that he continued his golden touch with the bat in the game against Delhi Capitals in the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
Rajat Patidar made a mockery of the Delhi Capitals bowlers with his brutal batting and slammed another half-century in the tournament. The batter scored his 5th consecutive fifty of the season and with the way he was batting, it seemed that he would play a big innings.
However, his stay at the crease was cut short by Rasikh Salam. The fast bowler bowled a short-of-a-length ball outside off. Rajat Patidar tried to slap it away but was late on it and miscued it. The ball went straight to the right of Axar Patel at covers who took a brilliant catch.
However, what caught the attention was the face-off between Rasikh Salam and Rajat Patidar after the game. After the pacer removed the fast bowler, he was celebrating with his wide arms, and the batter on his way back sidelined his arm and moved ahead. Salam then went on to confront the batter but Patidar had walked off.

Hopefully we can tick off another win - Will Jacks
Royal Challengers Bengaluru batter Will Jacks opened up about the game against Delhi Capitals ahead of the game. He talked about the importance of having Virat Kohli in the team and also confident of winning the game. Speaking about his plans, he explained:
"Looking forward to this game. It's amazing, it's unbelievably loud, especially when Virat is at the other end. We're lucky to have this as our home ground. It's been a bit up or down, I just need to get past 10 balls and hopefully, I'll get a big score. Hopefully we can tick off another win.
"People dream of batting with him (Virat) in a chase, he's the master chaser and he was talking me through it step by step and I think that's what experienced guys do. It's (aggression) a tight line, especially if I come in in the 4th or 5th over where I want to take advantage of the remaining powerplay. On occasion I might have gone too far over the line but that's something I've been learning. We've been winning the last few games so that's helped me out," he concluded.
