Ipl 2020 Rcb Did Not Bowl According To The Pitch Aakash Chopra On Their Loss Against The Chennai Super Kings

He made this observation while reviewing the Virat Kohli-led side’s defeat to the three-time IPL champions in a video shared on his YouTube channel.

Aakash Chopra pointed out that the RCB innings never gathered any momentum as none of their top-order batsmen could put their foot on the accelerator.

The reputed commentator highlighted that the Chennai Super Kings throttled the RCB batsmen through their spinners, with Sam Curran also bowling an excellent over at the death.

The former KKR player observed that the Chennai Super Kings had the upper hand at the end of the first innings although they have frittered away such advantages recently.

Aakash Chopra pointed out that the pitch did not seem difficult to bat on during the Chennai Super Kings innings, with Faf du Plessis and Ruturaj Gaikwad giving them a flying start under the circumstances.

He observed that the RCB bowlers not making optimal use of the conditions made the pitch look better than it actually was.

The 43-year-old added that the pitch at Dubai was similar to that of Chepauk, with the Chennai Super Kings bowlers feeling more at home than the RCB ones.

Aakash Chopra signed off by stating that although Ruturaj Gaikwad and MS Dhoni closed out the match in the Chennai Super Kings’ favour, the franchise was eliminated from the tournament after the Rajasthan Royals’ win against the Mumbai Indians later in the day.
