With his unbeaten ton, Rajat Patidar led RCB’s assault.
Gambhir has twice led the Kolkata Knight Riders to a title and hopes to do so again this year. However, all of his excitement and joy were dashed when the team was defeated by RCB by 14 runs in the crucial match, preventing them from progressing further in the tournament.
Despite skipper KL Rahul’s 79 off 58 balls, LSG could only manage 196/3 in their chase of 208. The RCB onslaught, led by Rajat Patidar’s unbeaten 112 off 54 balls, pushed LSG to the brink of defeat, and while they came close, Harshal Patel and Josh Hazlewood’s tight overs in the dying overs sent the IPL rookies packing.
While LSG will return next season, RCB will now face the Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan Royals in the season’s penultimate game in order to secure a date with the Gujarat Titans in the final.
