In their last outing against Punjab Kings, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) hit it lucky when Virat Kohli and Rajat Patidar were dropped before they had scored. Both went on to make half-centuries in Dharamsala, muscling RCB to a 60-run drubbing of Punjab Kings.

RCB’s luck with dropped catches spilled over to Sunday night as well at the Chinnaswamy Stadium. In a bizarre 11-ball period, Delhi Capitals put down four catches, reprieving Patidar on 42 and 47 and Will Jacks on 19 and 24. That the catches were shelled by exceptional fielders–stumper Abhishek Porel, stand-in skipper Axar Patel, Shai Hope and Tristan Stubbs–made it even more difficult to digest.
