Another IPL loss for Virat Kohli and his Royal Challengers Bangalore left millions of people around the world inconsolable. Gujarat Titans won the game by six runs in favor of Bengaluru on Sunday. Shubman Gill played a masterful innings and scored a brilliant century to end RCB’s hopes of making it to the IPL 2023 finals. Gill scored an unbeaten 104 from 52 balls, including five fours and eight sixes, to give his team a dominant win over the match.
Why Virat Kohli was disappointed?
Virat Kohli, who smashed his century earlier in the game, was disappointed when RCB lost. Kohli was sitting in the RCB dugout when Shubman Gill smashed the ball across the park. When Gill sealed victory with the first legal delivery of the final, Kohli apparently hid his face with a cap. Some reports also suggest that Kohli threw the cap in anger but later picked it up.
This is the most painful moment of this season
RCB vs GT IPL 2023: About the match
Kohli’s 61-ball 101 for Royal Challengers Bangalore’s 197 for five looked the best of the day. But Gill, who could be the torchbearer of Indian batting for the next ten years, has proved that he is better than the best.
What Kohli did well, Gill did better as his unbeaten 104-ball 52 saw Gujarat Titans chase down the target with ease. Like former Indian captain Kohli, this was Gill’s second consecutive century.
Gill hit eight sixes and five fours. Thus, Titans finished the league with 20 points while CSK finished second with 17 points ahead of Lucknow Super Giants who had a better net result. After an eight-point win against SRH, Mumbai Indians were back in the top four with 16 points.
With 34 needed from three overs, Gill’s short-arm half toss and half pull to Mohammed Siraj was the killer blow. He then hit him for another six to end the contest as Kohli hit the dugout in disbelief.
