RCB Stumbles Early, Lose Wickets in Powerplay Against Fierce Bowling Attack

Royal Challengers Bengaluru got off to a shaky start in their innings, reaching 15/2 in 3 overs. Opener Virat Kohli, after a promising start, fell for 7 runs off 6 balls, caught by Prasidh Krishna off Arshad Khan's bowling. Devdutt Padikkal followed soon after, scoring 4 off 3 before being dismissed by Mohammed Siraj.

Philip Salt, struggling for rhythm, is currently batting on 2 off 7 deliveries, while captain Rajat Patidar has yet to get off the mark. The Punjab bowlers have been on target, with Siraj and Arshad picking up a wicket each.

With big hitters like Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma, and Tim David yet to bat, RCB will hope to recover quickly. However, Punjab’s disciplined bowling will look to keep them under pressure in the crucial powerplay phase. Stay tuned for further updates!
