And suddenly that looks like something you could work with going forward.
It absolutely did.
So it was Bangalore getting over the line last week against... I forgot who it was against, but it doesn't matter because it was all about Bhuvaneshwar Kumar, who we've seen before many times on Australian soil.
I think Aaron Finch still dreads facing Bhuvaneshwar Kumar, even though he's long retired.
And yeah, I mean, he walked out with Bangalore needing a 9-for-3 in a big game.
I mean, it was two teams involved at the top of the table.
And he just hit his first six in 10 years in the IPL.
And that too over deep extra cover, sensational shot.
And then just showed his maturity and experience when they needed two of one.
just pushed it down the ground and came back for a second run.
So, yeah, that was Bangalore beating Mumbai and knocking them out of the tournament, actually.
So, yeah, because we've spoken about this in the last few weeks, we've seen a lot of scores of 220 and 230 being chased down with at least an over to spare.
But I think that will change now, Jared.
We see it every year in the IPL.
As we get to May, especially venues who host a lot of games like Bangalore or Mumbai or Chennai,
The pitches start tiring.
And even the game last night, Sunrisers didn't have to chase a big total.
But they were bowled out for 80-odd.
And just on that, Jared, just watch out for Kagiso Rabada.
This is probably the best he's bowled across formats in the last two, three years.
