After a series of ups and downs, fans in Bengaluru were treated to a thriller of a match after a long wait as Royal Challengers Banglore defeated Mumbai Indians by 14 runs, on Tuesday at M Chinnaswamy Stadium. IPL 2018 has not been good for RCB as they further slipped to the bottom of the points table.
RCB by their win over MI has kept their playoff hopes alive.This was a very crucial victory for RCB as it took them to the 5th position in the IPL standings. “My wife is here and it's her birthday.This was a little gift for her. It was very important to win in front of her” said Kohli, the defending champion to the presenter.
This was a special win for the skipper, Virat Kohli, as it incidentally happened to be his wife's 30th birthday as well. Anushka Sharma has been subjected to a lot of trolls on social media in the recent times as RCB stumbled from one defeat to another. Even Kohli has encountered so many such trolls, but he still continues to stand by his ladylove.
