IPL 2023: CSK vs LSG - Mark Wood returns to Chennai with a point to prove

Virat Kohli may have had an average IPL season last year, but the run machine announced his arrival in IPL 2023 in style. Virat smashed an unbeaten 49-ball-82 vs the Mumbai Indians and guided RCB to a thumping win in their first match.

It was his 50th 50-plus score in the IPL and he became the first Indian cricketer ever to achieve this massive feat. Kohli currently has 45 fifties and 5 hundreds to his name.

Delhi Capitals' skipper David Warner tops the overall list with 60 fifty-plus scores to his name, followed by Punjab Kings skipper Shikhar Dhawan with 49.
