Earlier, chasing 200 runs in 20 overs was a big target in the IPL. But, Nowadays, if you have scored 220-230 runs, they can easily chase.
But Bangalore...
They were bowled out for 173 against Chennai, 182 against Kolkata, 183 against Rajasthan and Failed to chase Lucknow's 181 by 153 and lost to Mumbai Indians for 196 which they have reached in 15.3 overs.
The Hyderabad team is even worse. They scored 287 runs in 20 overs. Bangalore chased it and lost at 262. is I can’t understood This logic Behind. It sounds like a boy who scores 35 marks in mathematics in a quarterly examination and gets 90 marks in Annual Exam. Bangalore is always a question mark.
In the first part of Chennai 28, the same Rayapuram Rockers, who have already lost the in a betting match with the school boys on the beach and give the bat for penniless, will face them in the final of the Mirchi Cup at the end of the film and lose the cup. Thus ends the film. But in the second part, Rayapuram Rockers will avenge in a cricket match in Theni Town. Like the same, 206 runs scored Bangalore took revenge by bowling out Hyderabad for 171 runs. However, Bangalore Royal Challengers team is still on the last bench of the table.
It was a respite for the Bangalore fans, who had suffered a series of blows. Needing to score a minimum of 200 runs at 10 runs per over, Bangalore went into the next match after to chase 200 runs scored by Gujarat.
In the 4th over when Virat Kohli scored just 10 runs off 11 balls, Du Plessis was hitting 24 runs off 11 balls. Unfortunately, Du Plessis hits a ball from Sai Kishore which leads to catch for Vijay Shankar, on the deep mid-wicket. Total runs 40-1.
The new batsman Will Jacks and Virat Kohli's partnership was on par like Sathyaraj and Manivannan in their films. Virat Kohli reached his half-century in 31 balls in the 10th over. Jacks 16 (16). Total runs 98-1.
Jacks, who had been sitting quietly on the edge of the seat for 28 balls, climbed on to the seat in successive balls.
Jacks had conceded 44 off 29 balls before Mohit bowled the first ball in the 15th over when Kohli scored 69 off 43 balls. Jacks scored four runs off the first ball and reached his half-century with a six off the next ball. 54 (31). After that, he hit another six, 2 runs for a name sake, another six and then 4 runs and gave the last ball to Virat Kohli. Total Runs 177-1
"What the Hell! I'll bring my King" in the way Shubman Gill brings Rashid Khan for the 16th over. Till then, Rashid Khan had conceded just 22 runs in his three overs.
Not knowing that Jacks is in full form, Rashid Khan started bowling the 16th over. Kohli scored just one run off Rashid Khan's first ball and the game turns into Jacks' direction from the second ball.
When Jacks scored 72 (36) Rashid Khan bowled the second ball as a short pitch. But it goes for a six, after seen that Rashid’s nose starts sweating. He bowled the third ball and that too for a six. The fourth was a full toss. Again four runs flew. ‘Okay. let's make it to the stumps’ he bowled the fifth ball in the midrange. That was also a six. Jacks was standing on field 94 (40) with one ball remaining in the over.
Total runs 200-1. Both teams are equal score now.
Need one run to win. But six runs are needed to score a century for Jacks.
The last ball of the 16th over. Jack knows that If he does not score in this ball, Virat Kohli will score that one run in the next over. he knew well Virat wouldn't stroke the entire over for Jack's hundred. It's not a Test match to play like that. Even if Kohli is generous, what if a wide or no ball falls, it is over.
At the same time, if he score one run, he can score only 95 runs. Even if he score four runs, the maximum score is 98 runs. There is no other way forced to score a century only for 6 runs and finish the game. Rashid Khan bowled the last ball outside the stumps. That’s also hits a six. Not only the fans in the stadium, but also Kohli and Rashid Khan were frozen in shock.

He scored 28 runs in the last five balls (6,6,4,6,6). Only Jacks had captured the last two overs completely. Virat Kohli was standing like a cameo role in a film. Jacks reached his 100th run in 41 balls less than Kohli who scored 70 off 44 balls.
In the fight with Andrew Flintoff, Yuvraj Singh hit six sixes (6,6,6,6,6,6,6) of Stuart Broad bowling… Remember ?
Yuvraj Singh's record of scoring a half-century in just 12 balls in 2007 remained unbroken till 2023. Almost 16 years later, A Nepali cricketer named ‘Dipendra Singh Airee’ broke it in just 9 balls. In the same year, During the Ranji Trophy, Ashutosh Sharma scored a half-century off 11 balls to become the second rank.
Jacks should have been with Ashutosh Sharma in second place after Dipendra Singh Airee. But that is unlikely. As far as cricket rules, the first 50 runs are are concerned the fastest fifty scored by a person. But Jacks's scenario is entirely different. He reached the last 50 runs of his century in just 11 balls. 54 (31) - 100 (41)
Since Kohli was on the field from the beginning of the game. He should have been scored that score. But success works perfect on whoever takes the risk. The real hero is a one who achieves a goal that no one can easily achieve. He carves a place for himself in history.
Powerful people make places.
Even though the chances of winning this IPL trophy are miles away, Bangalore has given one of the most memorable performances of the year.
