After their fifth defeat in six matches, RCB captain Faf du Plessis clearly stated that their bowling is weak. After the match against Mumbai, he said, ‘We have to find ways with the bat and put up big scores. We know our bowling is not our strong suit. But, we have to find ways to manage it. We have to be creative, work hard with the bat and make the most of the first 4-5 overs with the bat.’
Faf du Plessis admitted that 196 was too low on this pitch and conditions. “We knew dew was going to be a big factor,” he said. We wanted to score 250 plus. You know you have to score big when the dew comes. The ball was so wet, it was changed several times. Even after this, the bowlers had to struggle.
