Buttler started off the tournament with a bang and welted runs incessantly. Earlier yesterday, Buttler had already piled up 418 runs with 3 centuries and 4 half-centuries in 15 games of IPL 2022. After faltering for a few games in the middle, Buttler looked in form against the Gujarat Titans in Qualifier 1. He scored a brilliant 89 off 56 balls but ended up on the losing side. Buttler carried forward with the same rhythm in qualifier 2. He scored a brilliant unbeaten 106 off 60 balls while chasing 158 against RCB in qualifier 2. Thus, ending the road of those who had somehow reached the qualifiers.

The hundred in the last match has now put Buttler next to Virat Kohli to have the most hundreds in a season. He now has four hundred and 824 runs this season with one more match to spare. Though he is more than a hundred runs behind Virat Kohli’s tally of most runs in an IPL season (973), he is quite close to breaking David Warner’s record.

RR vs RCB: The Same Old Story repeats for the RCB

Rajat Patidar once again captivated the scene with his scintillating batting. He stitched a partnership first with Du Plessis and then with Maxwell. It was Patidar who helped RCB cruise through the eliminator against the Lucknow Super Giants with his hundred. He scored a crisp 58 before getting caught on the boundary by Jos Buttler on the delivery of R Ashwin. RCB failed to gather momentum and wickets kept falling regularly after his departure. In-form Dinesh Karthik failed to deliver this time and RCB seized on a meager score of 157.

Sometimes low scoring games in knock-out games can be tricky. But Jos Buttler never let it go that way and decided to go bonkers from the word go. He got the much-needed support from his opening partner Yashasvi Jaiswal. Sanju Samson joined the pursuit once Yashasvi was dismissed. Buttler stayed unbeaten and saw his team home a comfortable victory with 11 balls to spare.
