Virat Kohli produced a stunning comeback after back-to-back ducks, smashing his ninth IPL century to guide Royal Challengers Bengaluru to a memorable chase of 193 against Kolkata Knight Riders in Raipur. This historic night saw Kohli break multiple T20 and IPL records.
He became the fastest player to reach 14,000 T20 runs, overtaking Chris Gayle’s record, and the first Indian batter to achieve this milestone, ahead of Rohit Sharma. Kohli also registered his 10th T20 century, a first for an Indian player, and became the most-capped player in IPL history, surpassing MS Dhoni. He extended his own record for the most IPL centuries and equalled Jos Buttler for the most IPL centuries in successful run chases.
Despite these achievements, Kohli remained humble, stating his love for batting and the pressure to perform. The win strengthened RCB’s position at the top of the IPL 2026 points table. KKR had posted 192/4 earlier, thanks to Angkrish Raghuvanshi’s 71 off 46 balls.
Kohli’s unbeaten 106 off 60 balls, mixing aggression with control, guided RCB home with five balls to spare.
