Faf Du Plessis’ Blunt Take On Virat Kohli’s Controversial Dismissal vs KKR

The match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL 2024 saw some controversial decisions that impacted the game’s outcome. One such decision came when Virat Kohli was dismissed due to a questionable ruling on the height of the ball.

Replays indicated that the ball was dipping and would have ended up below Kohli’s waist if he had been standing at his normal batting position. This decision sparked mixed reactions from the players, with Faf du Plessis expressing his thoughts during the post-match presentation.

He acknowledged the differing opinions on the ruling and emphasized the impact of such moments in the game. Faf du Plessis also highlighted the significance of the partnership between Jacks and Patidar, describing it as magnificent.

However, he noted that when a team is not winning consistently, a sense of panic can set in, as was evident in the crucial over bowled by Narine. Despite the challenges, Faf expressed pride in the team’s effort in bowling and fielding, with a commitment to strive for improvement and bring joy to their passionate fanbase.

Despite the team’s efforts, Royal Challengers Bengaluru found themselves at the bottom of the IPL 2024 points table following a narrow one-run loss to Kolkata Knight Riders. This result further highlighted the team’s desire to turn things around and make their fans proud.
