Padikkal remained unbeaten on 40 off 28 balls. After the game, Tim David decided to prank Virat and he took out one of his bats from his kit.Virat quickly realised that one of his bats was missing and he found in David's bag.
The Australian wanted to check how much time Virat would take to realise that one of his bats wasn't in the kit bag. " want to see how long it will take Virat to realise we have taken one of his bats," David said in the video shared on RCB's social media channels.
