RCB have been denied an opportunity at combating for a spot within the high two as SRH shocked them with simply their third win of the season.

Maxwell and Devdutt Padikkal had put up 54 runs in 44 balls for the fourth wicket in what was RCB’s highest partnership within the match. However, they went for an ill-advised single within the fifteenth over which ended with SRH captain Kane Williamson managing a direct hit and working out Maxwell. Maxwell had scored 40 off 25 balls.”Glenn was the only batsman who got any fluency on that surface and he was set, so he was probably the man we wanted at the crease so, it probably was. It bounced up nicely for the fielder and then an exceptional piece of work for the run out. Probably turned the game but, we just left a little bit too much to do at the end. We weren’t quite good enough in those key moments to get over the line,” Hesson advised the media after the match.Chasing a goal of 142, RCB had despatched in Dan Christian at No.3. Hesson stated that this was finished to maximise within the powerplay overs however the ploy failed with Christian being dismissed for only one run off 4 balls.”We felt that the powerplay was probably the easiest time to score. So we gave Dan Christian a bit of a license in the last couple of games – just to go out, try and attack and get us ahead of the game. Obviously, it hasn’t worked on either occasion,” stated Hesson.Click right here for IndiaToday.in’s full protection of the coronavirus pandemic.
