As the match was between the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and the Mumbai Indians (MI), the focus was on the two legends Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. From the MI vs RCB match at the Wankhede Stadium on April 12, there are multiple videos and images, capturing some moments between Rohit and Virat, that went viral across social media platforms.
One of the viral videos on the social media platform Instagram, shows the former captain of the Mumbai Indians, Rohit Sharma, involved in a funny banter with the RCB legend Virat Kohli.
Batting first, RCB set a massive total on the scoreboard. Riding high on the impactful knocks by Phil Salt, Virat Kohli, captain Rajat Patidar, and Tim David, the defending champions posted a total of 240 runs on the scoreboard in exchange for only 4 wickets.
Virat Kohli played a very crucial knock for the team. The batting maestro of Team India and the Royal Challengers Bengaluru registers another half-century in his T20 runs tally. Kohli scored 50 runs from 38 balls before falling short against the MI captain Hardik Pandya.
In his 38-ball knock, the opener slammed the MI blowers for five 4s and one 6. With the knock, he not only stitched a partnership of 120 runs for the opening stance with Phil Salt, but also created a solid foundation for the team, which later helped RCB to ensure a mammoth total of 240 on the board.
RCB set another record in the history of IPL
According to the stats, it was one of the highest totals recorded by RCB in the history of the Indian Premier League. So far, 263 is their highest ever total scored in an innings. In 2013, Bengaluru claimed 263 runs against the Pune Warriors India (now defunct).
In this season, they have secured another massive total in an innings. Against the Chennai Super Kings, the IPL 2025 winners registered 250 runs for 3 wickets in Bengaluru.
