RCB really are on a mission to rewrite their history books this season. 🔥 After ending their 17-year hoodoo at Chepauk against CSK earlier this year, they’ve now gone and snapped a 10-year Wankhede curse against Mumbai Indians — and in both cases, it wasn’t just wins, it was statements. 🧨 RCB's Batting Brilliance: Putting up 221 at Wankhede is no small feat — that’s a serious batting performance. And they needed every run of it, especially after the fireworks from Hardik Pandya (55 off 24) and Tilak Varma (45 off 21) nearly turned the tables with that brutal 89-run stand in just 34 balls. 🧱 Bowling Under Pressure: From 123 needed off 48 to 41 off the last 18 balls, it was getting nervy. But then came a clinic in death bowling: Bhuvneshwar Kumar was all guile and swing control. Hazlewood nailed his lengths with trademark precision. Krunal Pandya, already having had a strong game, capped it off with calm under fire. RCB showing they’ve not only got the firepower up top but also the discipline at the death is a real sign of growth. RCB really turned on the heat in both innings — and how satisfying must it be for them that this Wankhede win came with a full team performance. 💥 Kohli + Patidar = Chaos Virat Kohli brought vintage aggression with his fastest T20 fifty since 2019 — and his first IPL fifty under 30 balls in 6 years. 🔥 That early momentum from Kohli gave Rajat Patidar the time he needed to find his rhythm — and once he did, he absolutely smoked Hardik, which not many have done lately. Jitesh Sharma's finishing kick gave them a serious cushion — it’s not often that teams score 221 against an attack with Jasprit Bumrah in it. 📉 MI's uphill battle… It felt like game over by the 12th over of the chase, with the win predictor giving them just a 2.25% chance. But then — Hardik Pandya’s 42 off 15 and Tilak Varma’s 56 off 29 nearly flipped the script completely. 🧊 Clutch death bowling: Hazlewood and Bhuvi turned ice cold at the death — they held their nerve when MI were swinging big. Then Krunal Pandya, of all people, came in with 18 to defend against his brother's team… and absolutely iced it. 🧊 📊 Summary: 💯 Kohli’s intent = electric. 🔄 Patidar’s timing = elite. 🧠 Bowling plan = clinical. 🧍‍♂️ Krunal Pandya = closer.
