Bengaluru, June 2:
Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s second IPL title win came on Rajat Patidar’s 33rd birthday but more than that happy coincidence the skipper was pleased with his team’s start-to-end domination in the league.
RCB were an unstoppable force from the opening match where they decimated Sunrisers Hyderabad at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium.
That bull run reached its logical conclusion at the Narendra Modi Stadium with a five-wicket win over Gujarat Titans in the IPL final on Sunday.
“To be honest, last year was a lot of pressure. This year was more calm because of the way we played throughout the tournament. I think we have not just played, we dominated this year,” said Patidar in the post-match press conference.
“So we were pretty much confident that if we are playing like this, we are definitely going to win the second title for RCB,” he added.
He also sent out a cold message for contenders — RCB are far from finished.
“I understand how much time I am giving myself in batting because it is important to understand your batting. Before coming to the IPL, I did a proper net session.
