Now we will have TO wait and watch to know our fate: Kohli

A disappointed Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Virat Kohli today rued the fact that they will now have to adopt a "wait and watch" policy to know their chances of qualifying for the play-offs after the team slumped to its seventh defeat in IPL-7.
RCB today lost by seven wickets to a clinical Sunrisers Hyderabad to make life difficult for themselves in the ongoing IPL.
RCB now find itself in the fifth position in the points table with two more games to follow. But a win in the next two matches will not be enough to seal their play-off berth as their fate now depends on the results of other games as well.

"Before this game, we have things in our hands to qualify. We have to win this game to keep things under our control. But now we will have to wait and watch what other teams do and hope for the right result, which is not good situation to be in," Kohli said at the post-match press conference here.
"We were in such a situation last year as well but we played good cricket to put ourselves in a position where we had the control of how to play the last three games. But we could not hold on to that momentum this year," he said.

Kohli was dejected with the fact that his good show failed to help his team clinch a victory against Sunrisers today.
Kohli, who led from the front with a 41-ball 67 -- his first half century of the tournament, RCB was just not good enough to cross the line today.
"We could not execute our plans in the end and suffered because of that. Sunrisers played well throughout the second innings. We pulled things back nicely, but just not good enough to cross the line. I mean, 22 in two overs with momentum on our side, we should have defended. If you don't execute your yorkers, you are going to suffer in the end overs," he said.
