Virat Kohli may miss out the game against DD

Reports floating in the media suggest that Virat Kohli may miss out on the game against DD. Already struggling to keep their hopes alive of making it to the Playoffs, nothing can be more unfortunate for the side.

Languishing at the 7th spot in the points table, with 3 wins and 7 losses out of their 10 games, the side has to win all its coming matches to stay in contention for the Playoffs. Delhi, having already been shown the way out, would now try to spoil the chances of other teams and RCB can be their first target.

As per reports in Star sports live, Virat Kohli missed the practice session on the eve of the match against DD. He is reported to be unwell and there is always a possibility that he may not be 100% match fit for the game.

Kohli has had a decent IPL 2018 by his standards. He has scored almost 400 runs with an average of a shade under 50. However, his performances have not been highlighted that much as RCB has ended on the losing side more often than not.

No prizes for guessing who will take the captaincy duties in the absence of Kohli. It would well and truly be the Superman from South Africa AB de Villiers.
