Bangalore: The title dream of Virat Kohli and his team Royal Challengers Bangalore ended with a defeat against Gujarat Titans. Bangalore team’s star batsman Virat Kohli, immersed in the grief of defeat in the match, takes care of his fans despite the disappointment. When Rashid Khan approached him after the match, he welcomed the star leg-spinner of the opposition with open arms. Virat Kohli autographed the jersey to Rashid Khan. They were also seen talking for some time. Let us tell you that Virat Kohli (101 * runs, 61 balls, four 13, six 1) scored his second century in a row to get Bangalore out of trouble and raised hopes by reaching a huge score of 197 runs. But, on his hard work, Titans opener Shubman Gill (104 *) also destroyed the water by scoring his second consecutive century.
After the first wicket fell early, Gill and impact player Vijay Shankar (53 runs, 35 balls) shared a 123-run partnership for the second wicket to bring Gujarat back into the match. Then Gill stood till the end and won the team with five balls to spare. Bangalore’s defeat gave Mumbai an easy win in the playoffs.
Virat fought a lot
Gujarat won the toss and asked Bangalore to bat first in the match which was delayed by almost an hour due to rain at Bangalore’s M Chinnaswamy Stadium. Bangalore started well by scoring 62 runs without loss in the powerplay. But, after this, his innings faltered due to three setbacks in the next three overs. ‘King Kohli’ stood firm in the midst of falling wickets and saved the team from trouble by sharing a 64-run not out partnership with Anuj Rawat for the sixth wicket. In response, what Virat did for Bangalore, Gill did the same thing for Titans.
