HYDERABAD, India (AP) — Rajat Patidar smacked 50 runs off 20 balls as Royal Challengers Bengaluru overturned their poor form to beat Sunrisers Hyderabad by 35 runs in the Indian Premier League on Thursday.
Patidar hit five sixes in his second straight half-century, and Virat Kohli scored 51 off 43 balls to help Bengaluru reach 206-7 in 20 overs.
The heavy hitting Hyderabad batting lineup was restricted for once to 171-8 (20 overs) against one of the weakest bowling attacks in the tournament.
Opting to bat, Bengaluru was given a good start by Kohli and Faf du Plessis (25) who put on 48 off 23 balls.
Kohli continued his good spell as this season’s leading scorer, getting 32 off 18 balls in the power play. He then slowed down, scoring only 18 off the next 19 deliveries.
Patidar made up for lost time as he hit Hyderabad bowling to all parts of the ground. He hit spinner Mayank Markande for four sixes in an over before being caught in the deep off Jaydev Unadkat.
