Patidar the Giant killer sets up battle royale

At the start of every season, 'will it be their season' does the rounds. Keeping their history in mind, there were no huge expectations from the franchise, but someone or the other has delivered at crucial junctures this season, helping the franchise in keeping the flames of their first title alive.

They were hoping for something similar when RCB faced Lucknow Super Giants at the Eden Gardens on Wednesday. A surprised hero emerged. It was not the likes of Virat Kohlis, Faf Du Plessis, Glenn Maxwells, who stole the show. It was a batter from Madhya Pradesh, Rajat Patidar, who came up with an astounding batting display, scoring an unbeaten maiden ton, to help Bangalore end up with 207/4. His 54ball 112, which included 12 fours and seven sixes, will go down as one of the best innings in the play-offs.
