The match number 43 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 is currently going on in Lucknow between the hosts Lucknow Super Giants and the Royal Challengers Bangalore.
After winning the toss, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain Faf du Plessis opted to bat first. Both Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis gave RCB a decent start, however, the slow pitch meant that the scoring rate was reduced.
Kohli was dismissed for 31 runs in 30 balls and then the whole batting order collapsed for RCB. Du Plessis tried his best but the pitch condition meant that the team couldn’t put a big score.
In fact, the pitch that the match is being played on has a average score of 128, which is quite shocking. In the end, the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) could only score 126 runs for the loss of 9 wickets. See how Twitterati reacted to it.
