Royal Challengers Bangalore endured another tough night on the field as they suffered a 28-run defeat against Lucknow Supergiants at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Tuesday. This was RCB’s third defeat in their fourth match and they are ninth on the points table. When asked to bat first, LSG posted a total of 181/5 in 20 overs, with Quinton de Kock hitting 81 off 56 balls. Later, the home team lost the chase and were eventually bowled out for 153 runs. Mahipal Lomror is the only batsman in the RCB lineup to cross the 30-run mark.

Talking about RCB’s flop performance, former India batsman Manoj Tiwary said that the failure in the middle order made Faf du Plessis and others miss out on the legendary AB de Villiers.

“They should go after that target. I think the absence of AB de Villiers is hurting them now. All-rounder Cameron Green is an emerging player who has done well for Australia but not for RCB. However, he scored in the last game. Rajat Patidar was sent to bat at No. 3. Green, who had performed well in the previous game, was not sent in and Glenn Glenn Maxwell is also another losing bet. If you check his IPL numbers, he is “If you don’t perform well in all 14 games, then at least perform well in 7-8 games,” Tiwary said on Cricbuzz.

Former India batsman Virender Sehwag, who was part of the discussion, reacted to Tiwari’s remarks and said: “7-8? Even Virat Kohli Also unable to play a winning performance in 7-8 games. Every team thinks it is expensive for players to play big games at least in 2-3 games. If a player can lead the team in 2-3 games If you win, that’s a big achievement.”

“Players need to maintain a stable performance, such as scoring 100 points in one game, 80 points in the second game, etc. Leading the team to victory in 7-8 games, this can only be achieved in one year, And that is not possible in the IPL. 17 In all these years in the IPL, I have never seen any player playing 7-8 winning matches for his team,” he added.

Talking about the match, LSG posted a fine score of 181/5 after de Kock scored 81 runs off 56 deliveries.

In response, RCB struggled to forge a meaningful partnership, leading to their downfall and ultimately a 28-match losing streak for the home team.

After two wins from three games, LSG will take on 2022 champions Gujarat Titans on Sunday, while RCB will take on Rajasthan Royals on Saturday.
