"All Hail The King": RCB Dressing Room Reacts to Virat Kohli's 6th IPL Century

Former Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli was at his very best in the Indian Premier League 2023 match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. It was a crunch game for RCB and Kohli made sure that he brings out his best performance of the season. Bangalore released a video on their social media handles after the win where everyone was praising the ace batter.

This win has kept Bangalore in the race of playoffs and they can even finish among the Top Two teams if other results go their way. Kohli’s strike-rate was being criticized a lot, but the way he played yesterday was phenomenal to watch. The timing was there and he was just effortlessly hitting those maximums.

This was Kohli’s first century in IPL after four long years and he was elated about the same. The partnership between him and Captain Faf du Plessis was joyful for the fans out there. In the video, Kohli was looking jubilant and was seen joking around with all-rounder Glenn Maxwell.

“It’s what they do, we are not surprised. They just need to keep doing it,” Glenn Maxwell said.

“We all feel that it was around the corner, it’s so good to see him bat the way he did,” Dinesh Karthik said.

“This innings was unbelievable, especially for me because it is my home ground,” Mohammed Siraj said.

“Had the best seat to watch King Kohli bat and that was something out of this world. I will remember this for a long time,” Michael Bracewell said.

“All hail the King, it was a fantastic hundred,” Mike Hesson said.
