IPL 2026: 'Wanted To Keep The Batsman Guessing,' Says Krunal On His Strategy In RCB’s Win Over MI
Following Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Following Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s (RCB) 18-run victory over Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Wankhede Stadium, all-rounder Krunal Pandya shed light on the tactical execution that helped swing the game decisively in his side’s favour.
In a match dominated by explosive batting performances earlier, it was RCB’s control through the middle overs that proved crucial. Krunal, operating in tandem with young leg-spinner Suyash Sharma, played a key role in slowing Mumbai’s chase just when it threatened to gain momentum.
“I just wanted to be one step ahead and keep the batsman guessing and that worked for us. And yes, Suyash bowled really well. Taking those two wickets in (his) first over changed the momentum. And I always believe bowling is about partnerships. And we were able to do that for the team, which was quite satisfying,” Krunal said of the overs 7, 8, 9 and 10, which the duo bowled.
