The win has also taken Bangalore to ten points and fifth place on a better net run rate, while Lucknow have slipped to third place but still have ten points. Bangalore had an early breakthrough on the second ball of their defence as Kyle Mayers pulled straight to mid-on against Siraj. Krunal Pandya injects some momentum by hitting Siraj for three successive fours in the third over. After three overs of no boundaries, du Plessis broke the shackles by lofting Naveen over long-off for six, followed by Kohli steering him between backward point and third man for four. Kohli then broke a 3.3-over period of no boundaries by driving through cover on an overpitched delivery by Yash Thakur. But in the ninth over, Kohli fell as he was nowhere near the pitch of the ball while coming down to counter a googly from Bishnoi and was stumped easily. From there, Bangalore endured a slide as Anuj Rawat pulled straight to deep mid-wicket off Gowtham, Maxwell missed a reverse sweep off Bishnoi and trapped plumb lbw, followed by Suyash Prabhudessai miscuing to long-off against Mishra. The drizzle then got heavier and forced players and umpires to go off the field in the 16th over. After 25 minutes, play resumed and Dinesh Karthik pulled Naveen for four and went deep in the crease to pull Mishra for six. But the veteran leg-spinner bounced back by having du Plessis slice a leg break to cover running in from his right. Bangalore's implosion continued as Mahipal Lomror was trapped lbw by a ball fro...

The 38-year-old is one of the Proteas best players of the modern era, amassing over 11,000 runs for his country across all three formats. Du Plessis will be available for the first seven matches of BBL|12, and will replace English import Laurie Evans, “I’m really exciting to be signing with Perth Scorchers," du Plessis said. MORE: “I think the first thing that jumps to mind is that Perth are four-time champions, which is very impressive. Any player who plays around the world wants to win competitions, so it’s a great franchise to be part of. “I’m also keen to come in and learn. I think it’s important to learn from other people and organisations, and find out why they’re successful. I’m also excited to share my experiences and the things I’ve learned, and hopefully that can be a great combination. “Looking from afar, it looks like Optus is probably the quickest wicket in the world. Watching the World Cup, the bounce looked very, very steep. "Obviously, the wickets in South Africa and Australia are quite similar with more pace and bounce than spin, so it is something I’ve grown up with and I’m looking forward to playing in Perth this summer.” Du Plessis had plenty of success Down Under during his glittering international career, averaging83.16 in Test matches and52.6 in ODIs for South Africa. His return to the Big Bash comes Du Plessis has played just one game in the BBL during his career, scoring 14 in a one-off appearance for the Renegades back in the 2012/13 season. Due t...

Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis Equal 'All-time IPL Record' As Pair For RCB Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis' run tally as an opening duo soared to 939 runs this season, the joint-most by any pair, let alone an opening pair in the history of this league. • Asian News International • Updated: May 22, 2023 10:06 PM IST The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) opening duo of Virat Kohli and Faf Du Plessis on Sunday became the pair with the joint-highest partnership runs in a single season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). They reached this milestone during their side's IPL 2023 match against Gujarat Titans (GT) on Sunday at Bengaluru. The duo continued their consistent run in IPL 2023, putting up a stand of 67 runs for the first wicket before skipper Faf Du Plessis was dismissed by Noor Ahmed for 28 runs. With this, the duo's run tally as an opening duo soared to 939 runs this season, the joint-most by any pair, let alone an opening pair in the history of this league. They have three centuries and five half-century stands this season. The RCB duo of Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers also had 939 runs as a pair in the 2016 edition of the IPL. Besides this, in IPL 2019 for Sunrisers Hyderabad, David Warner and Jonny Bairstow had 791 as a pair. They were instrumental in SRH's success in the team's peak years.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], April 26 (ANI): While batting superstar Virat Kohli is busy plying his trade for RCB in IPL, and his wife Anushka Sharma has been trying her best to be with him during the tournament. And, it seems like Anushka has also formed a great bond with Virat’s RCB mates, including skipper Faf du Plessis. On Tuesday, Faf took to Instagram Story and shared a cool picture with Virat and Anushka. The trio is seen dressed in green. “Team green,” Faf captioned the post. Virat shared the same image captioning it, “Hahaha what are we called? Anushka Sharma.” Anushka also jumped on the bandwagon and captioned, “Band name – Fresh lime soda.” The post comes after RCB defeated Rajasthan Royals by seven runs at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Sunday. Fiery half-centuries from Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell, followed by a three-wicket haul from Harshal Patel helped Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) defeat Rajasthan Royals (RR) by 7-run. Faf’s authoritative 62 off 39 and Maxwell’s blockbuster 77 off 44 helped RCB post 189/9. Harshal Patel then roared back to form with a crucial spell of 3/32, as he held his nerve in the last over and defended 20 to win the match for RCB. David Willey and Mohammed Siraj scalped one wicket each. RCB will next lock horns with Kolkata Knight Riders on Wednesday. (ANI) This report is auto-generated from ANI news service.

Faf du Plessis has indicated that he may return to the Proteas Squad for the 50-over ICC World Cup 2023 in India (October- November) if everything goes right. At the start of this year, the white ball coach of South Africa, Rob Walter, said he would be open to discussion with the 38-year-old current captain of the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), Faf, for preparing a road map for a safe route on his return in the national white ball side for the ICC event happening in India in the end. Though contrasting from his previous stand, a couple of weeks ago in May, Walter told Independent Opinion (IOL), a news website based in South Africa, in an interview that chances are low that the former Proteas captain will return. However, he did not entirely rule it out from happening. “First and foremost, for 50-over cricket, there’s a slight chance, but not a great one, that Faf would play. He’s got a few things that he needs to take care of physically that will allow him to continue to play T20 cricket, which is ultimately his bread and butter. I think it’s unlikely.” Walter told. He added, “It would be naive not to think that a guy like Faf would strengthen the squad. Of course, he would strengthen the squad; he’s showing himself to be one of the best players in the world. But as I said, it probably won’t happen. We are looking at a quality individual with really strong values and a guy who’s led his country. To fit him back into the team, for me, it’s not something that I worry too...
