Du Plessis was dismissed on 96 in RCB’s last game against LSG.
The Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Faf du Plessis feels that his maiden IPL ton is just around the corner, and is hopeful of getting there soon. Faf kick-started his journey at the IPL 2022 with a blistering knock of 88 runs for a new side in RCB, as Chennai Super Kings released him ahead of the auction.
Dinesh Karthik has been the savior for the team: Faf du Plessis
Du Plessis also stated that the team needs a player to anchor the innings and put the game together, and said that Dinesh Karthik has been successful in rescuing the team in that matter. “Need one guy to bat through consistently, but we haven’t had that frequently. DK has saved us quite a bit, hopefully, today is a stepping stone in that direction,” he said.
Faf praised another player from the RCB camp, as he said that Harshal Patel has been really good during the death overs and has bowled remarkably well as per the need of the hour. “Before the last two games, it (death bowling) was a concern as we were getting hit in areas we shouldn’t have been. But in the last two games, we’ve got hit to where we’ve wanted to. Harshal has been exceptional, watch out for him, he’s going to be special for the rest of the season too,” he said.
