Rajasthan Royals posted a self-troll tweet as they finally took a wicket versus RCB in IPL 2021

RCB thrashed RR in a lopsided encounter

Things have been exceptionally difficult for Rajasthan Royals to come around as they have struggled vehemently in the IPL 2021 and the spectacle has remained absolutely unchanged for the past few years.

As their battle with Royal Challengers Bangalore continued, with every passing ball things seemed bleaker for the Royals family.

The story of the match

Batting first, Rajasthan Royals piled up a modest total of 149 despite being off to a blinder, thanks to a stunning partnership between Evin Lewis and Yashashvi Jaiswal. It was expected that we were staring at a 200 plus total for the first time from the Royals.

However, the RCB bowlers came back on a stronger note, with Harshal Patel once again being the pick of the slew. Yuzvendra Chahal and Shabaz Ahmed gave perfect company to Patel as they plundered four wickets between them.

Despite a late surge from Chris Morris, the remaining resistance was way too slim and Royal crumbled down to a mere 149.

Chasing the total, Bangalore was off to a flyer, thanks to Virat Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal. The duo gave them the early pyrotechnics while Srikar Bharat and Glenn Maxwell hammered their way to glory.

Bharat pumped a fine 44 before Mustafizur claimed him, but it was too late to have any impact on the game. De Villiers finished in style as he struck a boundary to cross the finishing line.

RR’s woes against RCB in IPL 2021 continued

As Padikkal fell at the score of 48, Rajasthan Royals’ Twitter handle posted a tweet saying, “Hi RCB’s No. 3, nice to meet you this season.”

The reader will find context to this post if they tend to look at the previous game that was played between the Challengers and the Royals as Padikkal and Kohli smashed the target of 181 with 10 wickets and 21 balls to spare.
