That was some Merciless hitting by Jadeja. This final over completely changed the momentum of the game. RCB was looking in control till 19th over but lost all the touch in the final over. Final over’s 37 runs helped CSK to put a target of 192 against RCB.
This was the most expensive over in the history of IPL. Previously Chris Gayle had also smashed 37 runs in a single over against Prasanth Parameswaran. Now, Jadeja joins Gayle in this record of hitting most runs in a single over.

Jadeja’s smashed 62 runs off 28 balls against RCB. His inning included 4 fours and 5 sixes. Now let’s see if RCB can win it and continue its winning streak in IPL 2021 or CSK will stop RCB and win their 4th consecutive match.
