Actually, during the drinks break during the match, team mentor Dinesh Karthik had come to the field with water bottles for the players. Meanwhile, the umpire present on the field picked up one of those bottles and started drinking it himself. Captain Patidar did not like this and asked the umpire to return the bottle.

Rajat Patidar angry over water bottle
This entire incident happened in the presence of coach Andy Flower, who later reacted to it with a slight smile. The umpire also sensing the situation returned the bottle. The video of this incident went viral on social media and became a topic of discussion among fans. However, amidst this small controversy, Patidar’s bat spoke volumes.
Rajat scored 48 runs in 19 balls
Rajat Patidar batted brilliantly in the last overs of the match and scored 48 runs in just 19 balls and gave a strong finish to the team. This match was very high-scoring, in which both the teams together scored more than 450 runs. Chennai Super Kings definitely crossed the 200-run mark, but they could not completely hold on to the match. On the other hand, RCB maintained its dominance from the beginning and won the match.
RCB’s second consecutive win
After the match, Patidar said that the team’s confidence has increased further with this victory. He said, ‘Winning by playing good cricket is satisfying for the team. All the players are in good mood and ready for the next match.
This is RCB’s second consecutive win in the tournament and the team looks in excellent form. Now their next match will be against Rajasthan Royals on 10th April. Looking at the beginning of the season, RCB seems to be a strong contender for the title. Although the tournament is still in its initial stages, the team’s performance clearly indicates that this time they have the potential to win the trophy for the second consecutive time.
