On Saturday night, It was no-doubt AB de Villiers’ show and crowds enjoy his batting. Proteas powerhouse batsmen AB de Villiers continued to add shine to his reputation after his fabulous unbeaten knock of 39-ball scoring 90 runs fired Royal Challengers Bangalore to a six-wicket win over Delhi Daredevils at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. The AB de Villiers shows clinched RCB their second win in five games of VIVO IPL 2018. RCB jump two places to be placed fifth on the points table, while the Daredevils fell to their fourth defeat in five matches and they are bottom of the table.
Earlier, the visitors at the Chinnaswamy Stadium finished the Powerplay overs on 28 for 2 wickets. This season's worst performance in the first six overs of powerplay. Delhi Daredevil skipper Gautam Gambhir and Roy had a miserable outing on what turned out a very slow wicket in Bangalore. But both Pant and Iyer played like champions and helped Delhi to reach a competitive total of 174/5.
For Delhi Daredevil, it was young Pant eventually got out off the fourth ball of the last over for 85 off 48 balls. He hit six fours and seven sixes. Rishabh Pant emerged as saviour for Delhi put AB de Villiers ruins the party.
