Uncapped player century in IPL list: Rajat Patidar highest score in IPL

Uncapped player century in IPL list: Rajat Patidar was all over the LSG bowlers like a rash, as he smashed a 49-ball ton at the Eden Gardens.

During the ‘Eliminator’ fixture of the ongoing 15th season of the Indian Premier League at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata, the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), on the back of a scintillating maiden IPL century by Rajat Patidar (112* off 54) tonked the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) pacers black and blue, to post a total of 207/4 after their 20 Overs.

Earlier, the RCB innings got off to a poor start with their skipper Faf du Plessis heading back towards the dug-out on a Golden Duck.

Patidar then joined hands with Virat Kohli (25 off 24), as the duo stitched together a 66-run stand for the second wicket off mere 46 deliveries.

The 28-year-old went after the bowling right from the get-go, with him taking 20 runs off Krunal Pandya during the final Over of the Powerplay, to begin with his stellar show tonight.

However, the actual damage was inflicted upon the LSG bowlers during the death Overs when the in-form Dinesh Karthik (37* off 23) joined him at the crease.

The duo collectively smashed 92 runs off 41 deliveries for the 5^th wicket, collecting 84 runs off the final five Overs.
