Prince Yadav's inswinger cleans up Kohli duck
Marsh's maiden IPL ton powered LSG past RCB in a rain-affected clash where Yadav's 3/33 stole the show.
Prince Yadav fired a 140kph inswinger that trapped Virat Kohli lbw off the second ball. Lucknow Super Giants beat Royal Challengers Bengaluru by nine runs on DLS at Ekana Stadium after rain hit. Mitchell Marsh smashed 111 off 56 balls with nine fours and nine sixes to lift LSG to 209 for three in 19 overs.
Yadav returned three for 33 in four overs to climb joint-third on the Purple Cap with 16 wickets. RCB reached 203 for six in their 19 overs but fell short of the adjusted target. Marsh built stands that ended LSG's six-game skid, showing power laced with placement.
Yadav credits Mohammed Shami and coach Arun for his variations from tennis-ball days. Experts call his ball to Kohli the tournament's best so far. LSG gain momentum while RCB hold firm in playoff lock despite the loss.
