Former Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper, Virat Kohli and his affair to find freakish ways of getting dismissed are not ending just yet. In the ongoing match against Delhi Capitals (DC) on Saturday, he got run-out out for the 2nd time in the tournament when Lalit Yadav inflicted a brilliant run-out to see the end of Kohli’s innings in the 7th over of the match.
RCB after having put into bat was struggling at 40-3 after the early dismissal of Virat Kohli, who came out to bat in the 2nd over of the game itself as Anuj Rawat was trapped in front of the wicket by Shardul Thakur. Kohli played a couple of gorgeous drives and was looking in good touch as he has in the whole tournament so far.

Virat Kohli was batting on 12 of 12 balls when Shardul Thakur came into the bowl in the 7th over. Shardul did not bowl fuller to Kohli rather he kept it there quarter length and did not let Kohli score freely. Virat was trying to steal a single then set off from the crease, casually, quite unlike him, but then Lalit Yadav wasted no time in reaching to the bowl and flicked it towards the stumps.
Kohli was found well short of his crease. This was the 2nd time Kohli has been dismissed in the form of a runout. Earlier this season, in the game against Mumbai Indians he was given LBW in controversial circumstances.
