Batting on a brisk 35 off 20 balls in the 18th over, Rahul Tewatia posed a threat to RCB’s plans of restricting GT below the 150-run mark. Positioned to elevate the score, Tewatia attempted a pull shot off a short delivery from left-arm pacer Yash Dayal. However, his execution fell short as he top-edged the ball towards third man.

Just when it seemed the ball might evade any fielder’s grasp, Vijaykumar Vyshak intervened with an exceptional display of athleticism. Sprinting towards his right, Vyshak lunged forward with a full-length dive, snatching the ball inches above the ground to send Tewatia back to the pavilion.

The dismissal of Tewatia significantly altered GT’s momentum, limiting them to a mere 11 runs in the remaining overs. Despite valiant efforts from David Miller, Shahrukh Khan, and Tewatia earlier in the innings, GT concluded at 147 all out. RCB’s bowlers, including Mohammed Siraj, Dayal, and Vijaykumar Vyshak, shared the spoils with two wickets each, contributing to their team’s strong finish.

Reflecting on the game, an elated Vijaykumar Vyshak credited the team’s collective effort in restricting GT’s score. “Our bowling coach emphasized hitting the right areas, and we executed our plans effectively,” he remarked. Additionally, Vyshak acknowledged the impact of his fielding coach on his performance, underscoring the importance of diligent training.
