Guwahati, April 11 -- Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) captain Rajat Patidar admitted his side was second-best on the night despite putting up a 200-plus total, pointing to teen sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's explosive knock as the defining factor in their defeat to Rajasthan Royals in Friday's IPL clash at the ACA Stadium here.
The 15-year-old Sooryavanshi led a powerful counterattack to kick off Rajasthan Royals' chase, easily dismantling Royal Challengers Bengaluru's bowling with bold shots as the hosts continued to be on top with a six-wicket win over RCB. The teenager played with stunning audacity, his clean, powerful swings sending the ball racing to the fence at will, with 15 of the 26 deliveries fetching boundaries.
