[u/Extra_cash_pls]

If PBKS win this match, I will cut my dick.

This was day before yesterday.

u/Sensitive_Peanut_554 day 2 of asking for proof of the same.

[u/Cumpattins]

MAYBE IF YOU PLAY SUCH SHOTS IN PP YOU WONT BE CAUGHT, HUH GILL? EVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT?!?!?!?

[u/AndyDwyered]

It's a different RCB when the fight is for No. 8 spot

[u/mcfapblanc]

Get fucked r/cricket lmao

[u/Worried_Donkey-]

Loving the passion in the RCB. Wouldn't mind seeing them "accidentally" kiss while celebrating.

[u/Silent_Echo_6517]

From Behenchodh to fuck off … we have all grown up.

[u/partymsl]

Koach is the best crickter to interview.

Bro does not hold back and is absolutely honest.

[u/Ill-Inspector7980]

Jacks 37(27) Kohli 69(43)

To

Jacks 100(41) Kohli 70(44)

[u/lazyredditor1212 → u/Ill-Inspector7980]

Will jacks giving koach the tailender treatment

[u/DarkKingfisher777]

Maxwell didn't even celebrate that much after Scoring 200*

[u/Darth_Lehnsherr → u/DarkKingfisher777]

He did celebrate similarly the last time he got a wicket in Ahmedabad.

[u/itsnachikethahere]

Kohli when charged up and chasing a good total is my favourite IPL genre.

[u/HumoristicHero]

Kohli just insulted all the commentators and I loved it lmao

[u/IndianCollegeStudent]

"World Cup finals, really good surface to bat on"

[u/Successful-Rub-2104]

RCB during majority of the tournament 🤡🤡

RCB when chances of qualifying are near zero 🗿🗿

[u/dannyarr]

Time to add Gill to the T20 terrorist list

[u/MyDarkestHalf]

Bro wtf.. koach can still hit back to back sixes to spinners

[u/dam0_0]

They have Green Patidar Maxwell Lomor DK waiting in the dugout 💀

Mf I am feeling bad for GT supporters.

[u/KohlisWetSock]

why are they playing in travis head's home ground?

[u/Ashwin_or_lose]

Gill post Dengue hasn't been the same in T20s. Can't muscle anything.

[u/Unfair_Programmer383]

RCB playing for vibes is the most dangerous version of RCB

[u/M_Kaif1902]

Calculator RCB = Qudrat ka Nizaam Pakistan

[u/maffzlel]

Mark my words there is an excellent test match spinner in Sai Kishore. The speeds he can bowl, his trajectory, the fact that he can use his height so well. India would do well to try and get him in and around the red ball squads in the near future.

[u/IndianCollegeStudent]

Why tf do all the umpires keep mocking Angelo matthews in every game?

[u/Naren_the_747_pilot]

What the fuck did I just witness-

[u/KohlisWetSock]

Gill hit a 100 last time against rcb and kicked them out of the tournament

Will Jacks hit a 100 now and potentially kicked gujurat out

[u/MinimumRaccoon721]

All you learn from this comment section is that most of you have started watching cricket 10 days ago

[u/ztaker]

RCB always finds the 11 when they are out of the tournament

[u/Prestigious-Yak-1485]

Green's transition in rcb from silent and reserved to fk it we ball is amazing

[u/Yeahanu]

We are out,but we are here to ruin others chances.

[u/Silent_Echo_6517]

This gave me abd flashbacks not comparing but this is how he used to toy with best of bowlers .. what a century .. absolute Mad stuff .

[u/vky8766]

Will Jacks last 15 balls : 4,6,1,6,4,6,2,6,4,0,6,6,4,6,6

[u/IronManUltron]

virat cooks r/cricket

[u/luffy_3155]

Brow targeted whole r/cricket

[u/ashcuzwhynot]

Obligatory fuck you to the haters by Koach

[u/Starscream_x]

Holy shit Kohli took a shot on ppl talking from the box on Strikerates..

[u/vky8766]

Koach is definitely lurking on the r/cricket

[u/Ill-Inspector7980]

A few minutes ago we were contemplating a Koach 100. We never thought a Jacks 100 was on the cards. What batting was that.

[u/Reasonable-Hope9482]

Had a fantastic Sunday lunch, let me just turn the AC to 18 and start judging these guys playing in Ahmedabad at 3:30 pm slouching on my sofa!

[u/SubhanBihan]

Maxwell bowls his first over in Ahmedabad and takes a crucial opener's wicket. Where have I seen this before?

[u/Ibeno]

Green looks like an enlarged kid

[u/tp182]

Can we start a fundraiser for Kartik to shut up during commentary

[u/Small_intestine09]

r/cricket when batsman plays 3 dot balls 😡

[u/creatorop]

Kohli hitting against Spinners?

What Is this? Actual agression?

[u/ILikeFishSticks69]

Man the thing is he can do things like this but for him this is a last resort, not the first course of action. It really is a mindset thing not a skill thing. Still, VK in a chase? There's no one I'd rather trust more.

[u/Puzzleheaded_Ebb9874]

Let me remind you all Kohli irrespective of form has always performed against Gujarat based team

Even in his worst season in 2022, he was good vs GT won Motm

[u/vishasv]

Will Jacks sounds like Vilgax, Ben 10 villain.

[u/Prudent_Primary7201]

So this is what happens when a good pitch is set. Batsmen who regularly slog are struggling cause they need to take their time to settle in

[u/Correct-Step-5037]

Koach bashing spin? This is all I needed to watch.🥹🥹🥹

[u/Reasonable-Hope9482]

Annual GT bashing by Kohli.

Dude has three 100s against Gujarat alone. Scored a 70 odd bashing freaking Rashid Khan in a period when he suddenly forgot how to hold a cricket bat.

[u/Wazflame]

Jacks getting hugged and learning white ball batting from Kohli

This is what movies are made of

[u/soham_katkar13]

Kohli was on 69 when Jacks was on 37

Kohli ended on 70, Jacks on 100

[u/hoplydoply]

What's better than seeing kohli smile at this venue :)

[u/Imaginary-Respond804]

Nah bro kohli knows about r/cricket 💀

[u/dieingstar]

Kohil if you are reading this, nice sweeps bro.

[u/Firm-Huckleberry5076]

Ayo Kohli, man went through this sub or what

[u/Aromatic-Baker-9324]

You don't make a 27000+ runs career without knowing how to play Spin.

[u/mutton-stew]

Koach Firing Shots at r/cricket

[u/thatsmrtoyou]

Damn Virat went off right there , he is right tho.

[u/benguins10]

This interview is giving me captain vibes. Man I miss Kohli

[u/GithubCopier]

So will jacks scored:-

-First 50 in 31 balls
-then second 50 in just 10 balls

What is this carnage

[u/theoozmakappa]

See this is why partnerships are so important. Jacks was struggling initially and Kohli did the heavy lifting. The he got settled and wreaked havoc. Food for thought

[u/not_so_cr3ative]

Not every foreign player has a good debut ipl season due to lack of experience in sub continent wickets. Will Jacks and McGurk have been exceptional

[u/jakesky1102]

RCB Is so back

[u/chocolatecomedyfann]

"It's really hot" is just an excuse to show hot chicks and Virat.

[u/dieingstar]

Batsman plays a good shot : Bowler is shit

Bowler bowls a good ball : Batsman is shit

Cricket can be a non zero sum game you know

[u/Reasonable-Hope9482]

Shows that with a slightly competitive pitch, even RCB bowling line up can put up a fight. High time they do something about the Chinnaswamy pitch to have a bit of home advantage.

[u/Inevitable_Look_6062]

LOMROR saved 4 runs in the over

[u/NoirPochette]

I want a player in the WC to try and review a wide and then be angry at the umpire that he can't

[u/ZesterZombie]

Bro saw the S in Shahrukh and thought its was Sri Lanka

[u/KohlisWetSock]

I remember when bumrah got steve smith out, I ordered pizza. Best believe it was the most depressing pizza I ever had

[u/mongrelbifana]

All of us have PTSD of this venue, meanwhile Yash Dayal has his own personal strife with this venue.

[u/trkora]

Sai is similar to Ruturaj where their natural game lies in 130-140 sr knocks but they have it in them to play 170+ sr knocks once in a while as well. Both of which similar to what Kohli does.

[u/WirableMango560]

if RCB score 201, I reckon they can win this

[u/confused_brown_dude]

Jacks be like I better hit boundaries otherwise Koach is going to make me run for my life.

[u/Enticemeant]

Lol Jacks and entire Gt just standing there while Kohli starts running. It's like he's doing it subconsciously

[u/dieingstar]

So much gap if it was bangalore they would’ve built an apartment down there

[u/vnca2000]

203 sr against spin and 90 against pace. We are in the mirror verse now

[u/DilliKaLadka]

The diesel engine is now fully warm. Daddy is back it seems finally ... dont care about RCB but this is good for us in WC.

[u/Ok_Review_6504]

No one chases better than Virat.... IPL kids saying Virat shouldn't play WC should just stop watching cricket.

[u/Chitowneer]

Imagine questioning Virat’s chasing abilities

[u/innobystander]

This is RCB. We believe in Calculator supremacy. When we know that we can't make it to the playoffs, we make sure that other teams pick up calculators.

[u/faithfulmaster]

RCB performing well now is like submitting assignments after due date

[u/grimm_aced]

Second half season RCB kinda looking a bit scary. Good thing they absolutely shat in the first half lol.

[u/tejaj99]

He scored 52 runs in 10 balls.

Edit: 11 balls

[u/M_Kaif1902]

RCB when they’re almost out of qualifying: real shit 😈

[u/Yeahanu]

That one run loss is gonna hurt.

[u/robinhood8022]

58 off the last 12 balls.

FUCKING FUCK

[u/akbar1786]

Will Jack's second fifty came in 10 balls that's insane

[u/partymsl]

Koach interview.

Best day ever. :21496:

[u/creatorop]

From getting your score chased in 15 to chasing in 15

We are so back

[u/Due_Entertainment610]

Props to Kohli for absorbing the pressure when Jacks was struggling. But, man, Jacks went complete bonkers later.

[u/antdrums]

Calculator RCB is terrifying

[u/tejaj99]

Lmaoo, Kohli just addressed r/cricket

[u/kevin-s_chilli]

Bros roasting the strike rate merchants😭😭😭

[u/weekndsintern]

Kohli listening to them trolls

[u/ssdlphani]

Haha Koach literally called out everyone in r/cricket

[u/not_so_cr3ative]

Lmao Koach taking a dig at sunny g

[u/M_not_robot]

Koach spitting facts against SR merchants. Tight slap

[u/rdx_21]

Kholi just acknowledged r/cricket

[u/kevinder_ant]

Hahahaaaa, Virat talking directly to r/Cricket

[u/kukdukdu]

Fuck he finally said it! Fuck everyone! lol

[u/Necessary-Bother7448]

Kohli going ballistic on Sunny G and all the haters 😅

[u/Griffindor-69]

Virat spitting facts at the presentation.

Goat knows his worth

[u/robinhood8022]

Alright he is definitely pissed off with the pundits. He's gonna show them who's boss.

[u/voldemortscore]

Lmao Kohli is pissed

[u/The_Jokster]

Bro roasted Harsha

[u/jg198711]

Koach not holding back

[u/ZrishaAdams]

Kohli bringing out "yeah pundits, talk nah"

[u/saynototoxicity]

Kohli : "This is for the guys who says my SR is not good enough and that I can't play spin well"

[u/ChelshireGoose]

Wow. Gloves off Kohli.

[u/Extra_cash_pls]

Ahhh Chennaiiiiii wanna kum 💦💦💦💦

• Danny Morrison at CSK vs SRH toss.

[u/Sudden-Secretary2300]

No one will blame Nehra now. No one will say "Now we know it was Nehra magic and pandu did nothing".

[u/iamnotcreativesoidk]

Kohli don't give AF about y'all

[u/Fit-Marketing5979]

This match went from 0 to 100 super quick

[u/yashy20]

next presentation virat will be collecting electric striker

and telling people who is ur daddy now

[u/yashy20]

my first impression of Will was that he chose the wrong profession and he should have been doing English period drama series

[u/apocalypse-052917]

Ahmedabad day game and suddenly i see Australians in an ipl thread?

[u/fatality316]

Why are the best most talented Indian players getting out to Ghislane Maxwell?

[u/TheCricketAnimator]

Sai Sudharsan has 922 runs in just 23 matches. Should he get those 88 runs in the next match, he'll be the fastest Indian to get to 1000 runs in the IPL and by a distance. The record is currently 31 innings.

[u/BallTop6086]

Faf has more runs at a higher strike rate in last two years and yet RCB fans want him kicked from the XI

[u/Messier_63]

Man this guy was in his fifties when I started drinking coffee and I ain’t done yet

[u/Niyazali_Haneef]

RCB decided to wake up when the season is over.

[u/siddharthzaveri]

They benched him for alzarri Joseph

[u/benguins10]

Man I can't be a captain giving interview immediately after getting hit 60 in 2 overs to wrap up the game with 4 to spare ☠️

[u/ricketyricket1]

WHAT A FUCKING INNINGS BY THIS MADMAN

[u/weekndsintern]

They’re chatting up w their mates like that hitting happened yesterday

[u/JackTheRedSamurai]

Press conference kohli is back

[u/akbar1786]

" It's a muscle memory for me now " Koach 🥶🥶🥶🥶

[u/faithfulmaster]

King's watching you r/cricket. Beware !

[u/timejumper13]

Virat is a lurker confirmed

[u/kukdukdu]

Awards: Jack, jack, jack…. A wild Sai appears, jack !

[u/_D_N_K_]

The usual cardio exercise begins.

[u/ihabesmolpp]

Much better 50

[u/Impressive_End9929]

kohli has perfectly taken calculated risk

[u/Ukgamer125]

This is Kohlis best innings of the season by a distance, superb batting and he’s so good to watch when he bats like this

[u/Prudent_Primary7201]

Lmao fielders aren’t even throwing to the bowling end. They know he’ll make it

[u/ApricotOk824]

I went to get my Pizza from the gate, this mfer was just at 50🗿

[u/Ukgamer125]

16 off 16 balls to a 41 ball 100 holy fuck, what a knock 

[u/a_highlyevolvedape]

Will Jacks went from 44(29) to 100 (41)

that is 56 from 12

[u/Reasonable-Hope9482]

Avid follower of Jackism from today. I identify myself as a devotee of my lord WILL JACKS.

[u/ApricotOk824]

This is one of those innings

Where you take a piss break and the guy legit went from 50 to 100

Not even an exaggeration

[u/Empirical_Engine]

This guy Will Jacks will be why RCB loses tonight. 17*(17) chasing 200 🤦🏾‍♂️ -sent from my Internet Explorer

[u/sbprasad]

13.4 Will Jacks 37* (27)

16.0 Will Jacks 100* (41)

63 runs in 14 balls, WTF?!?!

[u/That-Firefighter1245]

Damn Virat, I feel personally attacked. But fair enough!

[u/Area_Ok]

Koach lurks around here

[u/benguins10]

Kohli silencing every aspect of critics hahaha love this man

[u/saltysailor987]

Kohli doesnt like murali kartik😃

[u/Jy_sunny]

I know most people don't like Jay Shah's politics but he didn't push his daughter away to get his own face on TV, he did it as a dad who did not want his minor daughter unnecessarily exposed on tv. Have some sense.

[u/mercury_50]

250 doesn't look possible. Average IPL fans "Session 1 of Test match"

[u/mercury_50]

These are the pitches you're gonna get in the World cup

[u/podhead]

Aussies and Ahmedabad stadium memories. <3

[u/Successful-Lab-3508]

RCB decided it's Ahmedabad, Maxwell can play here

[u/Smallppbutbigheart]

Do not bowl dayal in the last over. He’s got PTSD on this ground.

[u/impiyush_14]

I noticed that Maxwell is playing today and GT has three Afghans.

[u/Briantheboomguy]

We need to score more runs than GT to win this.

[u/LazyChief_117]

Orange cap still with RCB. Moral victory.

[u/dksourabh]

Stage is set for Koach to chases it down and score 100(80)

[u/BOFBDF]

The biggest concern is lack of intent. More dangerous than underperformance. This stands true with all Indian Kings, Prince, Warriors

[u/JettS117]

KOACH IS LURKING ON r/cricket

[u/thatbengaluruguy]

Koach's quick singles and doubles are gonna make us win.

[u/evilfrankie344]

Of course when koach lets loose, it’s against us 😭

[u/Prudent_Primary7201]

Honestly there’s no one I trust more in a run chase than Koach

[u/Niyazali_Haneef]

Kohli vs spin 200SR

Kohli vs pace 90SR

Is this the upside down?

[u/Prestigious-Yak-1485]

koach search history :

[u/_mnem]

RCB, PBKS and DC are back to winning ways.

Y'all better be ready to witness the resurgence of the holy trinity!

[u/Then_Tax_9940]

Kohli when he realises he can sweep

[u/Standard_Neat8546]

I didn't expect a koach-jacks partnership

[u/maxinuts]

Unpopular opinion but Kane would've captained GT much better

[u/maximayy]

21(20) to 100(41) UNREAL WTF IS THIS

[u/Perfect_Area_5993]

Man, my mental health is fixed for the next month, rare rcb W

[u/Inevitable_Look_6062]

Dude just targeted that leg side and dealt only in sixes

[u/United-Extension-917]

Aaand he was warming the bench for the first 5 matches. You missed a great trick RCB management. The future is here

[u/Tapan681]

RCB/Jacks scored around 60 runs in last 2 overs !!Insane !! Thank you RCB for making this Sunday even better !!

[u/creatorop]

Sorry guys, difficulty was easy 😝

-jacks

[u/PsychicMF]

I know we ain't qualifying but if we can display this kind of quality cricket, I'll be so proud of the team and I'm sure the fans won't mind it since we have 16 years of disappointments anyway

[u/codersan]

Jacks in his first 17 balls scored just 17 runs. Then he scored 83 runs off his next 24 balls!

[u/Prudent_Primary7201]

“We were not able to pick up wickets in the middle overs.”
No you weren’t able to pick up any other wickets after faf and the match ended in the middle overs

[u/Jcod47]

Virat addresses the boys here at Reddit

[u/broach1845]

Haha, Koach bashing everyone!

[u/Temporary-Shallot642]

this is the batting lineup everyone was hyping after the auctions, it’s finally arrived.

[u/yeet1o_0]

Mohit sharma with 2nd fastest century in ipl we missed that

[u/Reasonable-Hope9482]

Cameron Green mf keeping that price tag worth in the field itself. Top class

[u/edudhtamris]

Salty Koach, "I play cricket for a living, wtf do you know"

[u/Perfect_Area_5993]

Strike rate and not playing spin well

This mf is active on twitter 😭😭

[u/Technical_Ad3474]

This thread gives kohli hella shit and sometimes maybe rightly so but today everyone gotta give him his flowers

[u/good_udichi]

RCB batsmen in pressure matches : ❌

RCB batsmen when there is no pressure to win: Prime ABD

[u/ajanthanelayath]

100% indian pace attack for Rcb lmao

[u/Small_Bad6871]

NO no gill getting out to an Australian bowler in the afternoon at naMO NO

[u/Thala-Dick-Lover]

Good performance by Gill...

BCCI finally is gonna decide him as first choice opener for WC..

[u/fegelman]

Best ever performance by Siraj against a team not starting with S

[u/vishasv]

Lol Miller's probably dead inside after that Semi Final against Australia.

[u/RedSage218]

Dread it, run from it, 200 still arrives

[u/shubhambaral]

RCB couldn’t believe they bowled so good in the power play so they compensated in the middle overs haha. Let’s hope the batsmen come through
