In the game on Sunday between Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), a miscommunication on the field between Nehal Wadhera and Josh Inglis resulted in a costly run-out. While trying to complete a straightforward run, both players ended up at the same end without either making an effort to get back to their crease.
Virat Kohli, positioned at cover, took advantage of the situation and teamed up with Tim David to execute a quick run-out, sending Wadhera back to the pavilion for just 5 runs. Kohli's enthusiastic celebration after the wicket drew a lot of attention on social media, with his gestures seemingly aimed at Wadhera.
This run-out highlighted a disappointing batting performance for PBKS, who had initially started strong with a solid opening partnership between Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh. The duo managed to score a brisk 42 runs for the first wicket, setting a promising tone for a big total. However, their dismissals opened the door for RCB's bowlers, who took full advantage of the mounting pressure. Shreyas Iyer (6) and Nehal Wadhera (5) fell quickly, leaving PBKS in a tough spot.
Despite a few bright spots, it was clear that the Kings were struggling with their batting, and the mix-up between Wadhera and Inglis dashed their chances of posting a competitive score. They couldn't bounce back from the early setbacks, finishing at 157/6 after 20 overs.
Earlier, RCB captain Rajat Patidar won the toss and chose to bowl first.
"Batting second will give us a better understanding of the game and the pitch. We're not focused on the venues, just aiming to play good cricket," Patidar explained his decision after winning the toss.
On the flip side, PBKS was eager to prove themselves after their recent win against RCB just days earlier. "We also wanted to bowl. Ultimately, you have to adapt to the situation. It's crucial to give ourselves some time to see how the ball is behaving," commented PBKS captain Shreyas Iyer.
