IPL 2023 SRH vs RCB: Virat Kohli’s sensational ton takes Bangalore into Top 4

Riding on a special hundred from Virat Kohli, the Royal Challengers Bangalore cruised into the top 4 after a thumping 8-wicket victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad.

Asked to bat first, the SRH top 3 including skipper Aiden Markram failed to make a mark at home and were dismissed for a collective total of just 41 runs.

However, it was the majestic knock of Heinrich Klaasen, who scored his maiden IPL century on the night and made sure that his side posted a healthy 186 runs on the board.

In reply, it was the Kohli-Du Plessis show yet again as the opening duo stitched together an unreal 172-run opening partnership to demolish Sunrisers’ hopes of a consolation win.

The highlight of the chase was Virat Kohli and his blazing 6th IPL ton. King Kohli's 63-ball 100 combined with skipper Du Plessis' 47-ball 71 ensured the visitors got the crucial 2 points to boost their playoff chances.
