What's the story

Royal Challengers Bangalore defeated defending champions Mumbai Indians in the tenth game of 2020 IPL. Navdeep Saini helped RCB win a Super-Over thriller against Mumbai Indians after Ishan Kishan helped his side tie-up the scores. Notably, RCB have registered their second victory in the last nine matches and first since 2018 against the Mumbai-based franchise. Here are the records broken.

Match

How did the match pan out?

RCB were off to a flier after MI invited them to bat. The openers, Devdutt Padikkal and Aaron Finch shared an 81-run stand before Trent Boult dismissed the latter. Later on, AB de Villiers' knock powered RCB to 201/3. He was duly supported by Shivam Dube at the end. In reply, MI fell short despite heroic knocks by Ishan Kishan (99) and Kieron Pollard.

AB de Villiers

AB de Villiers continues his carnage against MI

AB de Villiers yet again showed why is he regarded as one of the greatest hitters in world cricket. He raced to his 35th IPL fifty as RCB went past 200 in the match. AB, who registered an unbeaten 55, smashed four sixes in the match. His last three innings against MI read as- 70* (41), 75 (51), 55* (24).

Do you know?

ABD has been a nightmare for bowlers at the death

AB de Villiers was on a roll in the second half of RCB's innings today. Interestingly, in the last three innings against Mumbai Indians, he has tallied 108 runs from 42 balls at a prolific strike-rate of 257.14 at the death (16-20).

Virat Kohli

Kohli fails to deliver once again

The recent form of Virat Kohli leaves RCB in a spot of bother. Against Mumbai Indians, he could muster only three runs from 11 balls. In the ongoing season, he has managed to score only 18 runs off 29 deliveries and is yet to record his first boundary. Notably, this is the lowest tally in his first three innings of an IPL season.

Notably, his last 22 runs came off nine balls at a strike-rate of 220. Meanwhile, Shivam Dube hammered 27 runs off 10 balls with the help of three sixes.
