Delhi Capitals’ stand-in captain, Axar Patel, won the toss and chose to bowl on a green Chinnaswamy pitch. RCB’s opening duo, Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli, started strong, scoring 23 runs in the first two overs.
However, du Plessis fell early, leaving the spotlight on Kohli. In the fourth over, Kohli edged a boundary past the wicket-keeper, prompting a light-hearted comment from a Delhi bowler.
Unfazed, Kohli responded with a spectacular six off the next delivery. The exchange of smiles between Kohli and his former Delhi teammate added a touch of camaraderie.
However, Kohli’s attempt to drive the following ball ended in a catch to Delhi’s wicket-keeper, Abishek Porel. As Kohli walked back, he received a friendly push from the bowler, maintaining smiles and exchanging words, sparking a social media frenzy.
