Top Order Batting Is The Major Concern, Says RCB Captain Du Plessis
Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Faf du Plessis admitted that the side's top-order batting needs a fix quickly after their second straight loss, a 29-run defeat to Rajasthan Royals at MCA Stadium on Tuesday.
In the chase of 145 on a sluggish pitch, Bangalore were 58/4 at the halfway mark, including losing wickets of du Plessis and Maxwell on successive deliveries in the seventh over. The blows meant the batting never really recovered to chase down the total and were all out for 115 in 19.3 overs, raising questions over their batting make-up, especially with Virat Kohli opening the batting.
