The bowling attack of Chennai Super Kings at Chinnaswamy ground has become a joke. It has rained a lot of fours and sixes and Captain Cool MS Dhoni's every bet has been seen to be a flop. This devastation with the bat has been created by the pair of Faf Duplesey and Glenn Maxwell.
Maxwell-Duplessy wreaked havoc
Glenn Maxwell, batting in a stormy manner, completed his half-century in just 24 balls. Maxwell put the class of CSK bowlers from one end, while on the other hand, RCB captain Faf Duplesey also played fiercely.
Du Plessis wreaked havoc even more than Maxwell as he brought up his half-century in 23 balls. Every bowler of Chennai Super Kings looked completely helpless in front of the pair of Duplessis and Maxwell. Maxwell returned to the pavilion after playing a fiery inning of 76 runs in 36 balls, while Faf Duplessis hit 62 runs in 33 balls. Both added 126 runs for the second wicket.
BLITZ in Bengaluru!

Bad start of RCB
However, chasing the target of 227 runs, Royal Challengers Bangalore did not get off to a good start and Virat Kohli was dismissed for just 6 runs. At the same time, Mahipal Lomror also could not show anything special and returned to the pavilion without opening an account. Kohli started his innings with a four, but he lost his wicket after hitting Akash Singh's ball hard.
Highest score against RCB
Earlier, Chennai Super Kings put up the highest-ever total against RCB in IPL history. Devon Conway batted brilliantly, hitting 83 runs in 45 balls, while Rahane scored 37 runs in 20 balls. At the same time, Shivam Dubey scored 52 runs in 27 balls while playing in a fast manner. In the last over, Moin Ali scored 19 runs in 9 balls and he returned unbeaten. Due to this CSK scored 226 runs on the scoreboard after losing 3 wickets in 20 overs.
