IPL 2018, MI vs RCB: 5 reasons why Royal Challengers Bangalore lost to Mumbai Indians

#2 Spin woes

The spin duo of RCB failed today

Bangalore have high hopes from the spin duo of Yuzvendra Chahal and Washington Sundar. Both of them have had a mixed start to this year’s IPL.

Today was another off day for the tweakers. Sundar was trusted in the powerplay by Kohli but he struggled with his line and went for a whopping 19 runs of his first over.

Chahal too was smashed around by Lewis who hit him for two consecutive sixes. The duo went for a massive 64 runs of their combined five overs.

On a pitch where Krunal Pandya impressed with his part-time spin, poor performance from RCB’s spinners left their fans dejected.
