After Thrilling Loss vs. KKR, GautamGambhir's One-Line Message for Virat Kohli's RCB
The mentor of the Kolkata Knight Riders, GautamGambhir, heaped praise on Royal Challengers Bengaluru after their Indian Premier League 2024 match at the iconic Eden Gardens on Sunday. Gambhir took to his official X account and said that the Bengaluru-based franchise displayed a 'phenomenal character' during their match against KKR. He wrote, "Phenomenal display of character by RCB today.”
Summarising the match, RCB skipper Faf Du Plessis won the toss and elected to field first. The explosive 48 in 14 balls by Phil Salt, with seven fours and three sixes, provided the two-time champions with some extra runs in the powerplay.
Wickets were falling from the other end continuously, but skipper Shreyas Iyer 50 in 36 balls, Rinku Singh 24 in 16 balls, Andre Russell 27* in 20 balls, and Ramandeep Singh 24* in nine balls contributed just enough to take them to 222/6 in their 20 overs.
