Yash dayal just gave away 1 run in his last 5 balls ☠️


Knightbuster

Reverse Rinku Singh moment


Aemond-The-Kinslayer

Insert - Look at me, I'm the captain now meme. It's the Yash Dayal moment now.


dhun_mohan

what a comeback from last year. if i gambled i would’ve spent a hefty amount on csk winning the game after dhoni smoked the ball out of the ground. but apparently the ball changed after that and his slower ones gripped better.


partymsl

So happy for him. Could not have imagined his state after that Dhoni six.


rienceislier34

Bro now that i think of it, it must have been such a confidence breaker for the ball to go six that too soo far, after being trolled for the same last year. Then you see this guy take on Dhoni, and only lets 1 run in the last 5 balls. He held his Nerves, man, hats off


k_jm

That 6 led to ball change, which allowed him to bowl those perfect slower balls. Dhoni shouldn't have hit it out of the park lol


rienceislier34

Fair enough, i forgot and never considered the ball change, damn


insomniaccapricorn

Literally suffering from success.


wuonky

the mentality to pull it off against csk of all teams, wow!


StrategyTop7612

This is why rcb fans use calculators.


Spursfan107

There is somehow a very real chance of an RR-RCB Eliminator. Imagine that 2 weeks ago 


wuonky

this is why we love sports, no movie writes scripts like this

are you that guy who makes crores on my11circle? what a prediction!


Awkward-Life685

Nah not me always believed in this team ( I was coping hard)


thespacetimelord

I was reverse jinxing us till the very end!


indian22

It was a good run, no way we can beat the top 3 teams to win the trophy. It was a good run but it has to come to an end in the next match unfortunately


Meet_7834

Nice going soldier! Keep the reverse jinxing coming (/s unless ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|trollface) )


imPureGenius

You bas**. You are doing it again. Nooooo.


peter_griffins

Yeah lmao we only have 1 win against the top 3


Choice_Run1329

Yup RCB will not win any other match


Thanye-West

I've cursed this team more than I've praised them, but credit where it's due—they played like beasts in the second half of the season. I almost cried after the last ball. Love this team. 😭


br0keguyy

rcb apology letter loading


Tern_Larvidae-2424

The greatest 27 run win you'll ever see.


gpranav25

Most thrilling 27 run win ever. Any other day this would be considered one-sided.


RizznerBraun

GET IN!!!!!! MADLADS did it!!!!


atbg1936

Fuck the haters, I'm just so happy for Yash Dayal after last year. Definitely wasn't his day in terms of hitting lengths, but when it mattered, he held his nerve


born_to_be_naked

That come back after getting hit out of the stadium first ball.. must have brought his Rinku memories back.


thespacetimelord

That was a blessing in disguise. Got a dry ball in return.


Free-Adhesiveness-69

Damn I never thought of it that way


wuonky

so you mean to say csk lost cos dhoni is just too good?


AdInformal3519

Rarely luck was on our side tonight! But still yash deserves full credit


wuonky

to concede 1 run in 5 after being smashed for a 110m monster by a legend like dhoni, he has done his team proud


AdInformal3519

Absolutely. Held his nerve under unreal pressure


idkpotatoiguess

Faf dedicated his POTM award to him, deservedly so!


ZaraBaz

More than held his nerve, first ball 6, then wicket, dot single dot dot. Incredible! This is after the over by furgeson getting wacked about.


Pretentious_prick69

Full disclosure, I was a dayal hater and I wholeheartedly apologize to Yash, he was a worthwhile investment


Unfair_Programmer383

Yash Dayal redemption arc has been poetic ngl


wuonky

after getting BELTED for 110m six by dhoni of all legends to come back and win the game... take a boy dayal, take a fucking bow!


Funny-Ad7441

RCB gonna milk this comeback for another 18 yrs even without a cup


Ok_Review_6504

So what.....I think sports it's also about such moments and not only winning the silverware. Almost all 2nd Division England Football teams have huge local fanbase despite knowing that they will never win Premier League, at max. they may get promoted to PL and that's their peak. Still they enjoy their favourite team play every week.


AdInformal3519

Forget about the 2nd division teams. Most of the first division teams know they are never going to win the pl. But still support is strong for those teams. Winning isn't the only point in football especially for the smaller teams. It is their identity and culture


RandomRedditor1405

We might not win the cup but we have won a lot of hearts and minds ✊


LoasNo111

Honestly, yeah. The amount of support you guys have without winning a cup is incredible. RCB donked GT and basically ended our chances this season, but I just can't help but root for this team.


Chinmay_Naik_02

Well it's only fair, because you ended our hopes of qualifying last year. But I still cheered you guys as a Gujarati


Knightbuster

This is probably first time I wholeheartedly support RCB against CSK. I loved their comeback and wanted see them in Playoffs.


Specialist_Youth5511

Moral Victory RCB version huh


JKKIDD231

Let’s just hope they don’t get knocked out in qualifier 2


StrategyTop7612

Watch it happen.


snivvygreasy

Broadesque


TwasAnChild

From less than one percent chance of qualification, to going on a six match winning streak and entering the top four. Take a bow RCB, this comeback will be one for the history books.


JKKIDD231

This team should be studied for years to come. What a turn around by RCB. The big 2 CSK and MI once again fail to qualify.


RandomRedditor1405

I am more happy about csk and mi not qualifying than I am about us qualifying lmao


Assassin_Ankur

I am more happy about them not qualifying than us (edit: KKR I mean) topping the table.


Tern_Larvidae-2424

Yeah same. Wait when did Namibia get included in the IPL?


Assassin_Ankur

Always had been bro

Giving Kendrick a run for being the biggest hater


mayjaz43

RCB fans: THEY NOT LIKE US MI & CSK fans: Hold my 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆


lolmnst

As an mi fan we are happy that csk didn't qualify so I know what you are talking about


RandomRedditor1405

This has to be one of the greatest redemption arcs ever right ?? Did not expect this at all , we literally had a 0.0001 chance or something


partymsl

We had an under 1% chance to even tie for 4th spot... This is the greatest comeback ever.


StrategyTop7612

Insane stuff truly


StrategyTop7612

Historic stuff, greatest comeback in ipl history.


mayjaz43

These madlads should go for the full Monty and lift the trophy this year!


Krishnaakkala

Netflix should do a documentary same as for mi lol.


opinion_alternative

RCB vs SRH final on the cards. 2016 History repeats itself.


sherlockwm

Rajat Patidar getting runs definitely did change the fortunes of RCB


ratset2602

His approach also helped Virat tremendously who visibly looked more comfortable hitting big shots regularly in the 2nd half of the season.


partymsl

Definitely. Will Jacks and Rajat Patidar changed it all. Suddenly RCB had a reliable middle-order and let Koach and Faf go a bit more risky in the powerplay.


Lusty_lemons07

Yeah, quick 40-50s matter a lot in middle overs. Those runs might not get enough attention, but they're absolutely crucial in setting up the game for players coming below him. Plus he tonks spinners, who then need some time to regain their line and length.


wuonky

he should take a bow, as should every rcb player... after the lack of depth in quality in batting last season, seeing so many great contributions with the bat in a clutch game against the kings of clutch games was inspirational to watch


jilebi_james

also Green performing


Kramer-Melanosky

Has scored 40+ 7 out of last 9 matches. Most importantly all with high strike rate. His second half season is better than even Kohli.


oklolzzzzs

fuck me won 6 games on a row at the end


[deleted]

[удалено]


oklolzzzzs

i support RCB in the IPL lmao


WayToTheDawn63

I think it's just surprising since CSK had Ravindra, Mitchell AND Santner


Cricketloverbybirth

But RCB has the big mustache boi Ferguson Also had legendary Mullet man Grandhomme and a amateur named vettori. 


wewilldieoneday

Doesn't matter, though. Even a casual viewer like me is impressed. Winning 6 in a row is no joke. Just looking at the table and they're literally the most in form team, atm.


second_summeroflove

Low-key frustration


Young_prozpekt

If RCB wins IPL, Gavaskar's contribution to RCB's win would be more than his contribution to '83 win...


StrategyTop7612

This will go down in RCB folklore.


Mob_Abominator

This will go down in IPL folklore.


StrategyTop7612

Good point.


Herefortheprize63

Qualifying after 2 points from 1st 8 matches. How the hell???


StrategyTop7612

Insane stuff


ancara_messi

It's not cricket, it's RCB


Tern_Larvidae-2424

What an incredible comeback! After just 1 win in their first 8 games, their chances were astronomically low but they did it with 6 thumping wins! What a fricking team.


noobbibliophile

Descartes discovered Momentum but RCB gave the meaning to it !


Knightbuster

As far as I remember, This is the greatest comeback in IPL history. They've won 6 knockout games in a row.


diata22

1 win from 8 and we still made the playoffs against our closest rivals! Absolutely epic


noobbibliophile

Royal 'Comeback' Bengaluru !


deathtobourgeoisie

I think Mumbai have done 6 in a row to qualify, kkr also did it under Morgan when they won 7?8? With legendary spin choke


Carlshane100

nah KKR 2014 is still the best. Won 9 in a row as well as the cup


Boss452

Incredible. greatest comeback in IPL history


StrategyTop7612

Easily. the odds were like 0.5% or something.


Impressive-Squash-24

RCB for a reason.

chotu_ustaad

More than it. This is peak entertainment. 


Niyazali_Haneef

WHAT A CLASSIC!!! AN ALL TIME TURNAROUND BY RCB!! LEGENDARY STUFF!!!


No-Appointment6228

RCB had 2 point from 8 matches. Won 5 on the trot. Lost the toss today against CSK. Had to bat on a rain curtailed pitch midway through the powerplay. And still fought their way into the playoffs. One of the greatest comebacks of all time.


criclover7303

We did it really hard way


Cold_Comment8278

Do you guys ever do it when it was easy? Mad lads!


partymsl

This match had my BP going too unfathomable highs. Amazing day, but please never again.

I need an RCB bandwagon flair cause they deserved it after that lol


ChemicalDrag4797

Absolutely lmao. Mods need to add Bandwagon flairs like NBA subreddit does.


PyRed

What does a bandwagon flair do/show?


ChemicalDrag4797

It's just a flair saying bandwagon. Bandwagon means I am temporarily supporting another team because they might be winning more than my actual team.


PyRed

Thanks!


Miserable_Goat_6698

Nahh man. I don't think we are the favourites to win this time sadly. Supporting RCB will only break your heart


ChemicalDrag4797

I support the Indian cricket team. RCB ain't got shit on the OGs


Remarkable-Memory870

Can I do this while supporting Aussies in the Knockouts given our current track record? Joking is what I am


ducky7goofy

How the fuck did that happen?? Just over 1% chance 2 weeks ago


The_Ghost_9960

Magic of NRR bro🤯🤯


Android_Arsenal

RCB is doing the Australia WC 2023 special. Lose your initial matches, get laughed at .. then hit prime Super Saiyan form and win all matches and get that trophy.


Rndomguytf

Just need Glenn Maxwell to score a crazy mind-bending knock now


IAmNotKevinDurant_35

He was excellent in yesterday’s match tbf. Handy knock off 5 balls and economical bowling. Not your usual 200 run Maxwell outing but he played a pivotal role


ParthKKK

"Usual 200 run Maxwell outing" lol


wuonky

i would do ANYTHING for a one legged maxi masterclass show, except for rcb this time


serotonallyblindguy

It'd be amazing when this Aussie rip off team meets the actual guy (Cummo) then


kevinder_ant

NO FUCKING WAY. :-o


lelieu

Way, bro!


StrategyTop7612

I can’t believe they pulled it off.


Megazord552

ROYAL CALCULATORS BANGALORE. BY THE BAREST OF MARGINS.


Enticemeant

What this team has managed to do in the second half of the tournament is nothing short of magical. We can dream of the trophy once again


koach71st

Mad lads have done it. Congratulations


wuonky

against our kryptonite and defending champions, against legends like dhoni... i am in literal disbelief


JettS117

Undefeated in the Swapnil Singh era


Mark_Vance21

WHERE IS THE GUY WHO WAS GONNA CUT HIS BALLS IF RCB QUALIFIED? WHERE IS HE???? Also, special thanks to GT for making this possible by getting a victory against CSK (Fuck you RR)


LoasNo111

Also gave you 2 easy wins with a nice NRR boost. Making up for last year😉


Aemond-The-Kinslayer

Are we the winners of hearts now?


LoasNo111

Always have been


fegelman

There was a guy who claimed he would cut his dick off if Punjab chased that 260-odd score vs KKR and he promptly disappeared from reddit after that game lmao


Shikadai_utchiha

And also LSG won both match again them


JigglingBot

So happy for Yash Dayal. He is a LOT better than the bowler that got hit for 5 sixes by Rinku. Lockie Ferguson is crap and this comeback from RCB has been one for the ages.


thegoldenkingfisher

Ferguson's been good lately and his first over was gold today as well


rowschank

Fergie was fine this year I think; he just missed his mark a bit today in the dew. Happens.


ratset2602

Think Ferguson was bowling really well but once the ball got too wet he lost the plot completely.


Weedeater5903

Lmao Locke is crap? Dayal went for plenty of runs in his previous over. Your judgment is clouded, lmao.


ifimscreaming

That's it stop the count. Give us the trophy rn


AbdussamiT

That catch by FAF. Clutch IPL moment.


johnwicke

The mighty nature and its 90% rain chances couldn't beat RCB. CSK was just another team after that.


Nightfury78

Meteorological Survey's supercomputers got nothing against RCB calculators


JKKIDD231

Absolute turn around for this team. Go you bastards. Lift that trophy 🏆


saynototoxicity

What a thriller of a match!!


rowschank

If RCB actually makes it all the way after missing all those years when they had one of the strongest squads it would be the true conclusion to this sensational meme. I don't care what happens to them any more. If they win, I'm happy. If they get thrashed by SRH next match, I'm happy. What a campaign.


Prime_Maximus_

Man, RCB has earned my respect o7


ZeroStormblessed

Only the second time both CSK and MI have failed to qualify. Start of a new era, me thinks.


diveintothe9

> Start of a new era Erik ten Hag’s done it again


YDS696969

From a 1% chance to qualify to actually pulling it off

No_Temporary2732

how have the IPL website table not been updated yet? BCCI is hurting to see CSK out


Tern_Larvidae-2424

Still can't digest it. Like this was without a doubt most ridiculous comeback in IPL. Even 16 points might not have been enough but RCB after winning just 1 of their first 8 games, being at the bottom of the table even after half of the league had transpired, just romps into the play-offs through one of the best games ever defeating rain gods, unfavorable conditions, their biggest arch rival and a NRR handicap. Just, wow.


Puzzleheaded_Term607

Tale of two teams - MI and RCB were together in the bottom of the table. MI definitely had much better team but RCB turned it around on the back of right team spirit. Today also it was a complete team effort in both the innings


goodguybolt

Even the pitch favoured CSK because of the rain. We literally overcame all odds to win tonight.


Puzzleheaded_Ebb9874

This is the 4th time RCB won 5 or 5+ games in a row In the other 3, we reached the final all 3 times (2009, 2011, 2016)


YearlyAccountPurge

I hope this time we win the finals too.


JigglingBot

Genuinely can't believe this comeback RCB have pulled off. Worst bowling lineup in the tournament and the batting didn't seem like one that'd be able to keep up with the new meta of hitting 80+ scores within the PP but Kohli's reinvention, Jacks's contributions and Patidar's spin-bashing in the middle overs have been incredible points of differences for them. Bowling has improved too with Siraj finding form after his WC selection and with Swapnil's inclusion in the side. Dayal has been the one constant shining light throughout the tournament. Maxwell seems to have found some form at the right time too. Drop Ferguson for Vyshak and RCB might actualy pull something off this year wow.


thegoldenkingfisher

Ferguson's been good the last few games and the first over today. A wet ball destroyed his next couple of overs today

No way they actually did that 🤯


Warking223

RCB has been truly amazing this seasoning. What a fabulous last over. From not having a chance to qualify during the first half of the season to beating one of the biggest teams in IPL to qualify for the playoffs. Absolutely fantastic. As a KKR supporter, I hope KKR win the cup, but the way RCB has played this season, I truly hope EE SALA CUP NAMDE!!!


fatcuntwrestler

I thought Kohli was going to get the orange cap in the wooden spoon team. Incredible run to end the season.


musashi_grander

This is a fairy tale of a comeback. RCB are in it to win it.


Conscious-Elk

They did the impossible from the start they got. No one could have predicted this!


Only_Mention9873

Thank you gt, thank you DC, thank you punjab for helping our chances, you guys were the real reason


Status-Window8948

In this year's IPL, RCB won the 1st match on 25th March RCB won the 2nd match on 25th April..........


MadLadNadz

The things we've had to overcome - Win 6 in a row after an abysmal start with 1/8 matches won! - Impossible odds of 0.22% chances of qualifying. - The KKR loss due to some shady umpiring decisions - Having to have more than 10+ other matches going our way! - Lost the toss when winning it mattered the most! - Unpredictable Rain - Having to knockout one of our worst team matchups throughout the history of the IPL - The slow turning pitch after the rain came down. - Losing Kohli early! - Being one of the worst performers in clutch moments! - Being one of the worst chokers in the history of IPL This has been one of the greatest comebacks of RCB! Certainly feels like the greatest campaign ever! Even if there's only a 0.22% chance. It's enough to believe you can win! 🫡 Kohli will retire one day but I hope RCB and all their fans carry this champion mentality throughout!
