Meanwhile, this comes only days after KKR crushed RCB by 21 runs in their third IPL 2023 victory. RCB were defeated by KKR after scoring 179/8 in 20 overs. This is the second time this year that this has happened. Virat Kohli and Mahipal Lomror put on a strong fourth-wicket stand to keep RCB in the hunt for 201.
After two years, Virat Kohli is back in charge of the Royal Challengers Bangalore. He is taking over for usual skipper Faf du Plessis. Plessis will not play because of a damaged rib, according to Kohli.
Kohli has been with RCB since the inaugural season of the IPL. In 2013, he was appointed as the Royal Challengers' regular captain. He led RCB in 140 games, winning 64 and losing 69.
