Mumbai, April 8: Sanjay Bangar, former India batting coach and an astute observer of the game, dissected Royal Challengers Bengaluru's 12-run victory over Mumbai Indians and praised the tactical brilliance shown by captain Rajat Patidar. According to Bangar, RCB's decision-making under pressure and the smart utilisation of their bowling resources was the defining factor in their first win at the Wankhede Stadium after a decade-long wait.

Chasing a daunting 222, MI looked in command at one stage, needing just 52 off 24 balls with six wickets in hand. But a game-changing final phase saw RCB wrest control back, thanks to disciplined bowling and strategic field placements.
슬롯사이트The standout moment for me was Patidar슬롯사이트s decision to use Bhuvneshwar Kumar in the 16th over instead of saving him for the death. It was a high-risk, high-reward move, but it worked. Bhuvi brought experience and control when RCB needed to break MI슬롯사이트s momentum. These are the small windows that shift the game in T20 cricket,슬롯사이트�슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Bangar said on ESPNcricinfo TimeOut.
Bangar also pointed out that having just five frontline bowlers turned out to be a blessing for RCB. Unlike MI, who had an abundance of bowling options but perhaps lacked clarity in roles, RCB stuck to their core group.

슬롯사이트Sometimes too many choices lead to confusion. But Patidar knew exactly how to manage his limited resources. One of the boldest moves was saving Krunal Pandya, primarily a middle-over bowler, for the final over. 슬롯사이트It made absolute sense,슬롯사이트� Bangar said.
슬롯사이트Had he bowled the 19th, Hazlewood would슬롯사이트ve had too much to defend. By holding Krunal back, they surprised MI and reaped the rewards. It was clever risk management.슬롯사이트�슬롯 머신 사이트 추천he explained.
The performance of RCB슬롯사이트s spinners - Krunal and Suyash Sharma - was also a key takeaway. 슬롯사이트Everyone said RCB lacked depth in spin, but they bowled eight overs of spin on a flat Wankhede track, and did it effectively. That was the difference,슬롯사이트� Bangar noted.
In a season where tactical nous is proving just as important as big names, Bangar believes RCB슬롯사이트s new approach and Patidar슬롯사이트s growing maturity as a leader could take them deep into the tournament. 슬롯사이트If they continue reading situations this well, RCB could be a very dangerous side in IPL 2025.슬롯사이트�
