IPL 2025: We Did Not Bat Well Enough, Says Ponting After Loss Against RCB
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Punjab Kings head coach Ricky Ponting admitted that his side didn't bat well on a surface which had a lot potential than the total posted by the home team against Royal Challengers Bengaluru to lose the game by seven wickets at the new PCA Stadium, New Chandigarh.
After being asked to bat, openers Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh gave PBKS a brisk start. But the middle-order failed to capitalise and the hosts posted a modest total of 157/6 in 20 overs.
With Virat Kohli playing an unbeaten 73-run knock off 54 balls, RCB managed to chase down the total with seven balls to spare and won the match by seven wickets. Speaking at the post-match press conference, Ponting admitted his side was not good enough with the bat.
