The Royal Challengers Bangalore have had a respectable run in the 16th season of the Indian Premier League, which is now in progress. A few of Faf du Plessis‘s team’s games have been easily won, but they have also suffered razor-thin losses. RCB is now ranked seventh in the points standings after four games, with two victories and as many losses.
Virat Kohli, a former RCB captain, has played consistently in all four games, despite the side losing two of them. The former captain of India had been going through a hard time, and his performances for Team India and in the previous two IPL seasons had declined. However, the great hitter returned to form during the Asia Cup 2022 and has since been contributing to the runs.
As the biggest run-scorer for RCB thus far in the IPL 2023, Virat Kohli has displayed exceptional batting prowess and is currently ranked fifth among all scorers.
Experts have praised the 34-year-old for his outstanding play, and former India captain Mithali Raj has added her admiration for Kohli, adding that his performance will motivate his colleagues to succeed in the competition.
In T20s, it’s crucial for an opener to get the team going, and Virat Kohli achieved that against the Delhi Capitals. Virat Kohli attacks the bowlers, who are moving at 140 to 150 kmph. The bowlers never slow him down. She remarked during a discussion on Star Sports’ Cricket Live that the strike rate at which he is scoring runs in the middle will give the other batters the confidence to perform well when they step in.
Three of RCB’s four games to date have taken place in their home stadium, the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, where Virat Kohli also scored all three of his half-centuries. In their match against the Delhi Capitals, RCB scored a respectable total of 174/6 thanks to his fifty, and rookie Vijaykumar Vyshak’s three-wicket haul also helped the team preserve their total.
