Virat Kohli’s heroics on Holi
In the 6th match of IPL 2024, played at the iconic M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Kohli showcased his class with the bat. Facing Punjab Kings’ bowling attack, the former RCB skipper displayed finesse and aggression, hitting 11 boundaries and 2 sixes during his 49-ball innings. His remarkable performance silenced critics as he led RCB to a successful chase of 177 runs, securing a 4-wicket win over PBKS.
Awards and recognition
Following RCB’s triumph, Kohli’s contribution was duly acknowledged as he bagged several awards, including the Player of the Match. The victory marked RCB’s first win of the IPL 2024 season, uplifting the spirits of the home fans after their initial defeat against Chennai Super Kings (CSK).
Banter with Harpreet Brar
Amidst Kohli’s stellar batting display, a light-hearted moment unfolded on the field. During a crucial phase of the match, when RCB required 74 runs to win off the last 8 overs, Kohli engaged in a witty exchange with PBKS spinner Brar.
Kohli, known for his on-field charisma, humorously urged Brar to slow down, quipping, “Ruk jaa *****, saans to lene de,” as captured by the stump microphone. The comical banter left not just the players but also the spectators in splits, adding an extra layer of entertainment to the intense contest
