Wheneverย RCB skipper, Virat Kohli takes the field, there’s no lack of aggression, wild send-offs, animated banters, and exciting contests. Given he is leading the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), and it rubs off on his side as well. During the game against RR, it was an intriguing battle between Riyan Parag and Harshal Patel as they were fighting hard against each other.
Despite the fact that Harshal Patel didn’t have the most ideal start as he conceded a couple of boundaries in his first over itself. On the second delivery of the 14th over, Parag pulled off a helicopter shot to add insult to the injury of Harshal. And not only that, the very next delivery, he attempted a cheeky scoop shot.

However, that didn’t go the youngster’s way as the ball went off the back of his bat with the ball going towards the third man, where Yuzvendra Chahal took a brilliant catch. However, an already riled-up Harshal Patel, finally channelized all his frustrations from the day into an angry send-off, after an adrenaline-pumping battle with the RR batsman. He channelized his aggression as he has been ruling the bowling charts for his side and is ready to nail all the challenges thrown at him.

Virat uses Harshal Patel , like Rohit uses Bumrah ! This guy is doing extremely good , from being sitting in DC's bench mostly last year to RCB's main bowler this year ! The way he tuned himself is an interesting chapter , long way to go Harshal ๐ฏ๐ฏ#HarshalPatel #RCBvsRR
