IPL 2022, RCB vs RR: Patidar continues record-breaking spree; makes new record vs Rajasthan Royals
Patidar during the game vs RR
Rajat Patidar has been a revelation for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the playoffs. First, he scored a magnificent 112 vs Lucknow Super Giants in the eliminator, and now he ended with a brilliant 58 off 42 deliveries against Rajasthan Royals.
The inning is of great significance since no other RCB batter seemed to get their timing right.
With this inning, Rajat Patidar has become the second-highest run-getter in the history of IPL playoffs. He has aggregated a total of 170 runs and falls just behind Warner, who scored 190 runs in the playoffs in 2016.

- D Warner in 2016 – 190
- R Patidar in 2022 – 170

- W Saha in 2014 – 156
Not only this, Patidar also joined Venkatesh Iyer as only the 2nd uncapped player to score two 50+ runs in IPL Playoffs.
