Royal Challengers Bangalore outdo New South Wales
What a victory! What a match! Red devils of T20 cricket (read
Royal Challengers Bangalore) have made it to the CLT20 finals (champion’s
league T20). Not once but twice, RCB successfully chased a score above 200 in
consecutive games.
David Warner played an amazing knock of 123 runs (68 balls) for New South Wales Blues (NSW).
But alas it all went in vain as NSW lost the
match to RCB. Superb partnership between Chris Gayle 92 runs (41 balls) and Virat
Kohli 84 runs (49 balls) took the game away from NSW. Virat was awarded the man
of the match, rightly so as he played sensibly and stood not out till the end
of game.
The match result RCB 204/4 (18.3) beat NSW 203/2 (20). Royal Challengers Bangalore won by 6 wickets
Chris Gayle again weaved his magic yet again. In the last game against Red backs he was superb as usual. That game will particularly be remembered for the 6 of the last ball by A Karthik. It was simply splendid. And the game will always stay memorable for RCB. To bounce back from bottom of the table to being a semi-finalist needs some real talent.
RCB will now play the winner of Mumbai Indians – Somerset game
to be played in Chennai on 8th Oct 2011. The finals of T20 champion’s
league will be played on 9th Oct 2011 at MA Chidambaram Stadium,
Chennai.
