BENGALURU: (Apr 24) Stalwart Virat Kohli described the Chinnaswamy Stadium as a “special place to play cricket” as defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru ended their home campaign on a high after a controversy-ridden build-up to the season because of last year’s tragic stampede.
RCB on Friday rode on an explosive 115-run second-wicket stand between Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal to overhaul Gujarat Titans’ challenging 206-run target in 18.5 overs with five wickets in hand, finishing their home leg with four wins from five games.
