“Virat Kohli’s shot against Rashid Khan was brilliant” – Sachin Tendulkar on Kohli’s 6 to reach 50 against Gujrat Titans

Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli scored a much relieving 50 against the Gujrat Titans as the 33 year old has slowly started to get back in form. Following a disappointing IPL 2022, which saw Virat Kohli get out for a duck on 3 occasions, the former India captain finally managed to score a calm 54 ball 73 and help RCB win against the Gujrat Titans.

The win also put RCB back on the 4th spot on the points table. They should stay there and qualify for the playoffs as long as Mumbai Indians manage to beat the Delhi Capitals tonight. Kohli’s knock was appreciated by many and even by the master blaster himself. Sachin Tendulkar while speaking on his Youtube channel spoke about how impressed he was by Kohli’s batting.

Speaking on his YouTube series, SachInsight, Sachin said that the ball that Virat played off Rashid Khan to hit a 6 and reach his 50 was just brilliant. The ball was bowled in front of leg and playing against the spin, Kohli flicked his wrists to hit the ball for a 6 at deep extra cover. Sachin also spoke about the entire match in the remaining part of his video.

Virat Kohli’s 73 gave RCB their victory but their play-off hopes are still dependent on the result of Mumbai Indians vs Delhi Capitals. With a negative net run rate, RCB could go down to 5th if DC win and go level on points with the Royals. Whoever qualifies will play the eliminator against the Lucknow Super Giants while Rajasthan and Gujrat play qualifier 1.
