Royal Challengers Bengaluru On Saturday Defeated MS Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings In A Virtual Knockout Game At M.Chinaswammy Stadium, Bangalore To Register Themselves In The Playoffs Of Tata IPL 2024 Becoming The Fourth Team To Join After Rajasthan Royals, Kolkata Night Riders, Sunrisers Hyderabad For The Last Leg Of Indian Premier League.
Before Going Forward Let Me Share Some Stats For Kohli’s Last Six Outings-
47(29) vs CSK
27(13) v DC
92(47) v PBKS
42(27) v GT
70*(44) v GT
51(43) v SRH
All 6 do or-die games literally….
700+ runs @ 64 & 156 strike rate this season.
The above Numbers Are Just Sweet Dreams For Many Renowned Players Across The Globe. Still, For Kohli, It’s Just A Normal Day At the Office, Don’t Forget To Add Those 2 Runouts Of Shashank Singh And Shahrukh Khan Which Was Testimony To His Fitness And Athleticism.
On Top of All Of This, His Never Giving Up Attitude And Will to win On the Field Is The Main Driving Force For This Massive Turnaround Of RCB After Horrendous First Leg. Virat Not Only Has Taken His Strike Rate Up This Season But Also Bated Against His Limitations. Adapted The Slog Sweep To Attack Spinners Against Whom He Was Struggling For the Past 3 Years If Not More.
In The Above Video, You Can Just See From Virat’s Eyes How Happy And Pumped He Is After Faf Had Taken Probably The Match Seizing Catch Of Mitchell Santhner. His Aggression Not Just Lifts The Moral Of The Team But Also Pushes The Opponent Players To The Back Foot.
Virat Once Addressed The RCB’s Women Team After Their Poor Performance In WPL’s Inaugural Edition In 2023 That –
“Always think about the opportunity you have rather than how bad it is right now. There’s always a flip side to it and it could always be worse than this,” Kohli said. “I have been playing IPL for 15 years and I haven’t won it yet. But that doesn’t stop me from being excited every year. That’s all I can do. That’s the effort I can put in. Every game, every tournament that I play. If we win, great. If we don’t, I am not going to go to my grave thinking only if I had won the IPL I would have been a happy man dying. It doesn’t happen like that,”
In 2024 Virat Kohli Showed The Whole World That His Words Are Not For The Toss But When It Comes To Him He Can Stand And Deliver For His Team Again & Again, Match Per Match.
But Virat Needs To Know That Aggression Is Good But an Overdose Of Everything Is Not Good, His Verbal Spats With Umpires And Players Can Create A Negative Image Of His In Some Masses And Can Shatter His Image For Life. Besides Umpires Are The Ultimate Bosses Shouting On Them Will Not Change The Dynamics For His Team.
Nevertheless, RCB Is In Playoffs And Everyone Is Saying-
ಈ ಸಲ ಕಪ್ ನಮ್ಮೆ
Hoping Virat Can Take RCB To Its Destiny This Year To Trophy On 26th May 2024 At Chepauk, Chennai. Wishing Him and the Whole RCB Camp Some Good Wishes And Luck.
