In RR's match against KKR, a ball from Rajasthan seamer Kulkarni had got an inside edge off rival opener Lynn and hit the stumps but did not dislodge the zing bails.

Speaking after the game, Ajinkya Rahane said that Rajasthan Royals were short by around 20-30 runs and even the bowlers failed to rise to the challenge.

The RCB fielders dropped a number of catches and Kohli said they can't afford to commit such mistakes if they want to finish on the winning side.

Owing to better net run rate Royals are above RCB who succumbed to a mammoth 118-run defeat on Sunday and are at the foot of the heap.

A hat-trick of losses has put the Ajinkya Rahane led Rajasthan Royals in a tough spot which currently sees the Pink army at the bottom of the table. What's gone wrong for RR? We discuss.

Soon after the tweet was posted, Rahane was bombarded with some hilarious answers from users on the micro-blogging site.

Rahane was elevated to the captain's role last season after Steve Smith was suspended, due to the Sandpaper Gate. This season will see the India batsman take charge for the second time. 

It's been more than a year that Rahane is out of Indian ODI team but he still will like to stick to his own method.

Rahane wants to focus on doing well in the IPL as he feels that it will automatically take him closer to the goal of representing India in the showpiece event.

Rahane was seen struggling with the bat in the group stage as he was able to put a total of just 58 runs in six matches at an average of 9.67.

Ajinkya Rahane, who hasn't played a limted-overs game for India since February 16, 2018, said that he still hopes to get a place in the ODI squad for the World Cup in England.
