Ahmedabad: Watching Jos Buttler take the Rajasthan Royals into the IPL final after 14 years with his latest special, a devastating 60-ball, unbeaten 106 which was studded with 10 fours and six sixes, a certain Shane Warne would be smiling no end from the heavens. With his murderous blade, Buttler is paying the leg spin legend, who led the Royals to their sole title in 2008, the perfect tribute.
Smashing his fourth hundred of IPL-2022, Buttler, who crossed 800 runs in the tournament, helped the Royals chase down 158 on a canter, as they outclassed Royal Challengers Bangalore by seven wickets at the imposing Narendra Modi Stadium in the second qualifier. He has now earned the Royals a second crack at the Gujarat Titans-and a chance to avenge their defeat to the hosts in the first qualifier, in the summit clash at same venue on Sunday night.
With the world’s most destructive batsman, currently enjoying the form of his life-he has scored four fifties in IPL-15 too- the last thing RCB would’ve hoped for was Buttler exploding. However, their worst fears came true as the Englishman knocked them out of the tournament with yet another devastating knock.
