IPL 2026: We Were 15-20 Runs Short, Will Introspect On Errors, Says RCB Captain Patidar
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) captain Rajat Patidar on Saturday lamented his side’s tense six-wicket defeat to Delhi Capitals in IPL 2026, admitting that the side finished ‘15-20 runs short’ despite a spirited effort to stretch the contest to the final over.
RCB’s aggressive intent only yielded 175/8 on a slow pitch as their middle order struggled against DC’s fantastic death overs bowling masterclass. Despite a blistering 63 off 38 balls from opener Phil Salt, laced with four boundaries and three sixes, RCB's innings stalled significantly in the second half as DC conceded only 29 runs in the last five overs.
"That was really close, but I feel that we were 15-20 runs short. The way we started, especially VK bhai and Salt, they gave a good start. But from there, after 12-13 overs, we lost wickets in a couple of overs, and that put us on the back foot," Patidar said in the post-match presentation ceremony.
