Kohli was batting after RCB were put in. He got an early lifeline when Shivam Dube dropped a catch. Soon after, Kohli hit Henry for a six when the ball was pitched in his hitting range, swinging across the line to clear the boundary.

Virat Kohli played a short but impactful knock during Royal Challengers Bengaluruโ€™s match against Chennai Super Kings in Bengaluru on Sunday, with one six standing out during his stay at the crease. At the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Kohli hit a no-look six off Matt Henry, sending the ball into the stands. Watching from the stands, Anushka Sharma applauded the shot.

โ€” StarSportsIndia (@StarSportsIndia) Kohli had also played in RCBโ€™s opening match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, where he scored a half-century. Anushka Sharma was present at that match as well. After the dropped catch, Kohli looked set for a bigger score.

However, Dube later took a catch to dismiss him for 28. Tim David, skipper Rajat Patidar and Devdutt Padikkal went ballistic with marauding knocks, powering Royal Challengers Bengaluru to an imposing 250 for 3 against Chennai Super Kings in their IPL match here on Sunday. Padikkal (50, 29 balls) and David (70 off 25b) gave a complete towelling to the clueless Super Kings bowlers in an exhibition of mind-blowing range-hitting.

Not to be left far behind was skipper Rajat Patidar, who smashed an unbeaten 48 off 19 balls. The Bengaluru side was 153 for 3 after 15 overs, and they added a further 97 runs in the last five overs, also exploiting some poor lines by CSK bowlers at death.
