Kohli put up a fine 172-run partnership with Faf du Plessis who scored 71. The terrific innings made sure that Heinrich Klaasen’s century for SRH went in vain as RCB went on to win in dominating fashion.
Kohli’s match-winning century takes RCB to the fourth position in the IPL 2023 points with 14 points in 13 matches, boosting the team’s Playoff hopes. SRH are stuck at the bottom of the pack with only 4 wins in 13 matches. Kohli drew level with Chris Gayle in the all-time list of top century makers in IPL history.
