Occasionally the batsmen make the very simple match difficult. In today's match, Lahore Qalandars threw the target of 180 runs to the Multan Sultans team. Multan Sultan score pretty well on the power play the score 49 at the end of 6 overs with losing 1 wicket. There was no pressure was seen by the batsmen. They are slowly made the match difficult. At one point the required run rate rises above 15 per over. It may be that the bowlers of the opposing team were more stronger by which batsmen did not play the ball and the wicket fell. This match was ended without any excitement.
Why would the batsmen make a simple match difficult for themselves and their team? It's the bowlers of the opponent team who does that. They bowl so well that the batsmen just simply can't score runs with a normal or required pace and eventually, the required run rate keeps rising and finally reaches a point where the match turns almost one-sided.
Lahore's bowling has been phenomenal in this version of IPL. They simply crush every team that comes in front of them, and their support for their batsmen is tremendous. If batsmen score even 150, the bowlers defend that with grace and they take the win away from the other team.
