IPL 2023 Orange Cap: Royal Challengers Bangalore are in a comfortable position and will be looking to finally end the drought and win their first IPL title in 2023 after decimating Mumbai Indians in their opening game of the season. As they did in the first game, the senior players will need to step up repeatedly to accomplish this. Particularly impressive was the partnership of Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis, who helped RCB chase down 172 runs against Mumbai Indians in 16.2 overs.
Aakash Chopra, a former cricketer for India, thinks that after scoring 82* runs in 49 deliveries, Kohli, 34, will still be in the running for the Orange Cap this year. As for du Plessis, Chopra referred to him as an “aggressor” and praised him for his outstanding performance.
“Based on Virat Kohli’s knock, it appears he will continue to compete for the Orange Cap this year. There are some parallels between this season and 2016 in general. Before to the 2016 IPL, he was in fantastic shape for six months at the international level. On a global scale, he is currently approaching that sublime form as well.
“The aggressor was Faf du Plessis. He started quickly, but Virat Kohli soon caught up. One plus one does not equal two when you are chasing, especially on the Chinnaswamy stadium, but it does equal 11 when two openers play in that manner,” according to Chopra on his YouTube channel.
In his analysis of MI’s batting performance against RCB
Chopra claims that for the side to succeed in the competition, Rohit Sharma and Tim David will need to score runs in the forthcoming games. The 45-year-old also praised Tilak Verma for his stunning batting performance against RCB and noted that MI currently have a lot on their minds.
“Mumbai was invited to bat first but was unable to do so. How powerful Siraj’s magic was. Ishan Kishan was dismissed, and Rohit Sharma ought to have followed suit. Reece Topley reprimanded Cameron Green. Tilak Varma possesses the power. The manner he performed while Mumbai was having trouble was excellent.
“Mumbai has a lot to think about after losing the opening match once more. This squad will appear to be having trouble if they don’t bat well and if Rohit and Tim David don’t score runs. Suryakumar Yadav was rather unlucky since the cut shot went right to his hands, but he managed to escape,” said the former cricketer turned analyst.
