Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) suffered a close loss to Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) on Thursday by eight wickets in Sharjah. It was the third loss for the team and RCB still sit standing at the third position in the points table with five wins from eight matches. However, more than the loss, their skipper Virat Kohli’s dance moves ahead of the match were immensely discussed.
Kohli has often been seen staying calm before a game and it has been no different in this IPL season as well. If anything, he is enjoying playing cricket more having missed it during the lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The video of Kohli’s dance moves went viral as well on social media and Rajasthan Royals (RR) fast bowler, Jofra Archer decided to take a dig at the RCB skipper.

While Virat Kohli’s cheerful mood was visible ahead of the match, RCB couldn’t perform well in the game against KXIP. After opting to bat first, the batting line-up failed to capitalize on a good start in the middle-overs. Virat Kohli, who was playing his 200th IPL match, scored 48 runs off 39 balls but couldn’t up the ante when the team needed. They demoted AB de Villiers, strangely, to number six which left many baffled.

Even with the ball, apart from Chris Morris, none other bowler looked effective. The match did go to the last over but RCB were always behind the game throughout and lost the game by 8 wickets.
