Virat Kohli finally performed when it mattered as he got his team Royal Challengers Bangalore over the line by eight wickets.
He scored 73 off 54 balls to chase down 169 against Gujarat Titans, the table toppers.
With this win, the Bangalore side now stay alive in the race to the Playoffs and would pray that Mumbai Indians beat Delhi Capitals or Rajasthan lose big time to Chennai Super Kings for them to be able to finish either three or four in the Points Table.
Earlier in the evening after winning the toss and deciding to bat first, Gujarat Titans, riding on the back of its skipper Hardik Pandya’s 62*, David Miller’s 35 and Rashid Khan’s 6 ball 19 managed to reach 168-5 in their 20 overs.
Purple cap holder Wanindu Hasaranag was the pick of the bowlers for RCB with his 1-25 in four overs.
