Virat Kohli took the ultra-aggressive route in his last match against Sunrisers Hyderabad as RCB were asked to chase a record 288-run target. He scored 42 off 20 at a strike rate of 210. Kohli scored 77 against Punjab Kings (PBKS), unbeaten 83 against KKR and 113 not out against Rajasthan Royals (RR).
The star batting is doing the perfect dress-rehearsal for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024. However, RCB are reeling at the bottom of the 10-team IPL 2024 points table. They have lost six of their first seven matches.
