Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) defeated Rajasthan Royals (RR) on Tuesday to register their second win in the ongoing season of IPL. In what was a roller coaster run chase for the Bangalore team, all-rounder Shahbaz Ahmed and Dinesh Karthik chipped in with match-defining knocks to take RCB past the finishing line after being down at 87 for 5.
The batters displayed exceptional stroke play under pressure to ensure the team’s second consecutive win in the tournament. RCB chased down Rajasthan’s score of 169 with 5 balls to spare.
The win certainly pumped the RCB camp and energies were flowing in the team’s post-match celebration. Giving a peek into their dressing room celebration, RCB posted a video of the team’s special victory song dedicated to the duo of Shahbaz and DK. The clip features skipper Faf du Plessis leading the charge as Virat Kohli and other players join him in singing the song.
