Yadav’s innings against RCB caught attention of cricket fans after his omission from the Indian team for the Australia tour. Styris’ comments also came after Yadav’s unbeaten 79-run knock on Wednesday.
Batting first, Virat Kohli-led Royal Challengers Bangalore had put up 164 on the scoreboard. When Mumbai Indians came to chase the target, their openers did not stitch a partnership.
Quinton de Kock gave away his wicket at the individual score of 18 and Ishan Kishan, who opened the innings with Kock, got out after making 25. Then, Yadav single-handedly helped his team reach the target, smashing 79 (not out) in 43 balls. He hit 10 fours and three sixes in his innings.
