IPL 2025: ‘Responsible for this defeat …’, captain Dhoni gave this big statement after defeat against RCB
MS Dhoni on Lose vs RCB IPL 2025: The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) kept their restraint between the noise to win the Indian Premier League (IPL) by two runs over Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the last over on Saturday in 2025. When 15 runs were needed in the final over, the equation changed dramatically when Dayal threw a high full -folded which Shivam Dubey launched for six, causing the equation to be reduced to six runs off three balls. But the 26 -year -old kept his restraint retained and stopped CSK for just four runs by putting three best yorkers.
Dayal took 2 wickets for 36 runs and immediately the teammates surrounded him and there was a festive atmosphere at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. RCB has got 16 points with this victory and has reached close to the playoffs. It was also a historic moment: For the first time RCB completed the league double on CSK in IPL.
When I went to bat, the kind of balls and runs needed, I felt that I should have played some more shots to reduce the pressure. I blame it. He made a good start, we returned in the middle, but the Romario Shepherd was fantastic. Whatever bowling bowlers bowled, they were capable of scoring maximum runs. We need to practice more yorker. It often happens that when the batsmen start connecting, you have to depend on the yorker. So if you are looking for a perfect yorker, if it doesn’t, then the low toss is the next most good thing. It is one of the most difficult balls to hit.
If a person like Pathirana, if yorker is not happening, then he has speed. He can throw the bouncer and confuse the batsman. Many times if he is looking for a yorker, then the batsmen try to put it in line and if he misses, then the batsmen have a chance to hit. It can be used, but not all batsmen are comfortable playing scoop. If it comes naturally, then of course. If not, it becomes difficult. This is something that you need to practice in the new era. Most of our batsmen do not play paddle shots. Jaddu plays it, but he is more comfortable on the field, so he was supporting his strength.
