15 seconds deciding on the result of RCB vs CSK –

On a night of high drama at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) edged past the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by just two runs in a nail-biting encounter. But amid the thrilling finish, a contentious on-field decision involving Dewald Brevis became a major talking point — one that may have ultimately cost CSK the game.

Fleming suggested the players were distracted by the live action unfolding and uncertain about when the countdown had started. “There was a fair bit eaten up with the play still being completed,” he said, also clarifying that even if the review had been successful, the leg-byes wouldn’t have counted due to the immediate LBW dismissal.

“In talking to Jaddu [Jadeja] And Brevis, a lot has happened to run immediately. I think they saw the ball's head and actually went to the border for four. And that's what Brevis has taken the review on time. I don't know the answer to this. At that time, he was not sure that they were running.

Just take the review.“Both pointed out the lack of disappointing match awareness with a brevis in wrinkles and CSK, which needs 21 closed 42, especially in wrinkles.
