Throughout his illustrious 17-year IPL career with RCB, Virat Kohli has consistently showcased his batting prowess. This season, he has emerged as the leading run-scorer, amassing an impressive tally of 542 runs in just 11 matches, earning him the coveted Orange Cap. RCB proudly shared Kohli’s latest batting feat through a social media post on Monday, highlighting his exceptional contribution to the team.
RCB unveiled Kohli’s most recent batting achievement through a social media post on Monday.
“16 players have scored 4000 runs in the IPL, but Virat is the only player to have scored 4000 IPL runs in a winning cause,” said the caption alongside the post on microblogging platform ‘X’.
The post on the platform ‘X’ revealed a remarkable statistic: While 16 players have crossed the 4000-run mark in the IPL, Kohli stands alone as the sole player to achieve this milestone in matches resulting in victories. This distinction underscores Kohli’s remarkable impact on RCB’s successes over the years, showcasing his ability to deliver crucial performances when it matters most.
Despite RCB’s history of never clinching the IPL title, they have shown resilience in the current season. With three consecutive victories in their recent matches, they have reignited hopes of making it to the playoffs. Presently occupying the 7th position in the 10-team table, RCB has garnered 8 points from 4 wins in 11 matches. To secure a spot in the top four, they must win their remaining three matches and rely on favorable outcomes in other fixtures, signaling a challenging yet hopeful path ahead for the Bengaluru franchise.
