IPL 2026: '255 Was A Huge Score, It Was Very High,' Says RCB Skipper Patidar
Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: After a devastating 55-run defeat in a run fest at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Friday, RCB skipper Rajat Patidar conceded his team were no match for the top order fire of SRH. The big target set by SRH, "was still quite big," he said following the loss of what had seemed an unassailable target.
"The top five (SRH) batters batted brilliantly, they dominated us," Patidar said after the match. "The top priority was to be on the front foot, but 255 was a huge score, it was very high."
Batting first on winning the toss, SRH, once again, produced a batting master class to reach a mammoth 255/4 in 20 overs. They were on their way thanks to a phenomenal 56-run inning of only 22 balls from Abhishek Sharma, as well as Travis Head's 16-ball-26, while the anchored provided by Ishan Kishan's scintillating 79 of 46 deliveries, supported by Heinrich Klaasen's fast-paced 51 of 24 balls taking them to over 250, and then, a quick 12-ball-29 from Nitish Kumar Reddy took them to over 255.
