IPL 2026: The Game Is On Winning The Game To Top The League Table, Says RCB's Flower
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Andy Flower said the batters at Royal Challengers Bengaluru left it up to them whether they chose to chase the score or just defend their net run rate against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the high scoring loss on Friday which still saw RCB secure the top of the IPL 2026 league table.
Although RCB went on to lose the contest by 55 runs on Friday evening whilst chasing down 255 for the win it was still 200/4 sufficient enough for the team to still be above Gujarat Titans and SRH on the table with a better net run rate securing them top of the league table and a direct shot at qualifier 1.
"We were in a position where we could have kept pushing to chase down 255 but ultimately we got the job done and topped the league. It is quite a difficult position to be put in, when you have got these conflicting things at play, " he said. "The game is on winning the game to top the league table".
