Virat Kohli is always in action. After Karn Sharma dismissed Rachin Ravindra, he was seen giving a fiery send-off to CSK batter. The Chennai Super Kings’ debutant scored 37 runs off 15 balls, laced with 3 fours and as many sixes.
He was looking dangerous in a run chase of 174. Kohli got pumped up when Rajat Patidarr took the catch of the New Zealand batter.
It is not the first time the RCB star batter has reacted in such a way. His sledging of Naveen Ul Haq led to a heated argument between the players in the last season.
With Kohli returning to action, the ongoing season of the Indian Premier League will see aggressive reactions from the former captain of the franchise.
Meanwhile, Virat was not at his best with the bat. He took 20 balls to score 21 runs, highlighting his failure to score at a rapid pace.
Despite trying hard, Kohli couldn’t get going before Ajinkya Rahane and Ravindra caught him. Faf du Plessis was the first one to depart after opting to bat first in the opening game.
Rajat Patidar and Glenn Maxwell could not score a run, while Cameron Green fell cheaply.
The responsibility fell on the shoulders of Anuj Rawat and Dinesh Karthik. They added 95 runs to take the score to 173/6 in 20 overs.
Rawat managed 48 runs off 25 balls, with the help of 3 fours and 3 sixes. Karthik amassed 38 not out off 26 balls, with the help of 3 sixes and 2 fours.
RCB have failed against CSK in Chennai,, and the team need needs some outstanding bowling effort from the bowlers.
