Virat Kohli’s fiery celebration after hitting 32-ball 50 vs GT in tense run-chase

Virat Kohli was pumped after getting to his 54th IPL fifty during the GT vs RCB clash as he pumped his chest after reaching the landmark. RCB are in a tense run-chase at the moment against Gujarat, with Kohli leading the way with the bat, as he has done all season. RCB are chasing 201 runs to win the match.Â

Kohli has been in the news regarding his strike-rate in the tournament and the RCB batter had a slow start to the innings and it was Faf du Plessis who was taking on the bowlers upfront. Kohli was up against Sai Kishore as GT was looking to use the RCB star’s weakness against left-arm spinners. However, Kohli would break the shackles with two back-to-back sixes off Kishore and seemed very animated at that moment.Â

After Du Plessis was dismissed, Kohli would take charge of the run-chase as he has done many times in the IPL and would go after the GT bowlers. He found support from Will Jacks, who was looking to continue his fine run with the bat.Â

Kohli would reach his fifty with a boundary off Rashid Khan and showed a lot of emotion as he would pump his chest and acknowledge the team dugout as well. Kohli got to his fifty in 32 balls.Â
