On Tuesday, the RCB skipper Virat Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma, who is a well-known Bollywood actress played perfect hosts for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) players, who were in Mumbai for a match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) game against Mumbai Indians (MI). The celebrity couple, dressed in black, white and blue, hosted a party for RCB players at their Mumbai home.
Yuzvendra Chahal, Himmat Singh, and Dev Padikkal shared pictures from the evening and thanked Virat and Anushka for being such generous hosts. “Thank you for the wonderful dinner last night @virat.kohli @anushkasharma #goodtimes,” Yuzvendra Chahal wrote.
RCB succumbed to their seventh defeat in eight matches of IPL 2019 when they lost by five wickets against MI on Monday. Hardik Pandya produced a sensational late cameo of 37 not out off just 16 balls to hand another demolishing defeat to RCB.

Chasing 172 for a win, the match was hanging in a balance when Hardik came out to bat in the 16th over. He turned the game upside down, smashing five boundaries and two sixes during his unconquered 16-ball innings on a turning track at the Wankhede Stadium.Â
Mumbai Indians needed 22 runs from the last two overs but Pandya took just six balls to hit the required runs. It was Mumbai Indians’ fifth win in eight games and they are now at the third position on the IPL 2019 points table with 10 points.
