Aggressive celebrations have always been synonymous with some of the stalwarts of the game. Former Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper, Virat Kohli is one such character and his third fifty in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 against Delhi Capitals (DC) on Saturday led him to bring out his vintage celebration.
Virat Kohli, one of the best batters of modern-day cricket, often brings aggression to the cricket field which makes the game even more competitive. The former Indian skipper, however, was having terrible form with the bat since the Covid-19 outbreak, and many had questions about his good-old touch.

Then, ahead of the last T20 World Cup, Virat Kohli silenced his critics by scoring significant knocks one after another, and he has kept on carrying the momentum in the IPL 2023 as well. He began the IPL 2023 campaign with a fiery knock of 82 against Mumbai Indians.
Then he fell after scoring 21 against KKR, but roared back in style with two back-to-back fifties, with the recent coming against Delhi Capitals on Saturday afternoon in Match 20 of IPL 2023 at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. In his 34-ball stay, he smashed six fours and one six and reached the landmark in the 10th over of the innings, bowled by Mustafizur Rahman. Soon after, what he did at the crease led everyone to go berserk.

With aggression, Virat Kohli jumped for joy and thumped his chest to celebrate the feat in front of the home crowd. But unfortunately, he lost his wicket a ball after, bowled by Lalit Yadav.
Here is the video of the quality knock from Virat Kohli:
Twitterati, however, took little time to react to Kohli’s wild celebration.

VIRAT Kohli made 50(34) at the strike rate of 147+ on the slow and dry pitch where every batsman fail to cross even 30 runs.
And that aggressive celebration made my day🔥
