IPL 2024: Faf du Plessis, Virat Kohli, and Bowlers Lead Royal Challengers Bengaluru to a 4-Wicket Victory Over Gujarat Titans.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) secured a victory over Gujarat Titans (GT) in their Indian Premier League match at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.

This victory propelled RCB to seventh place on the table, accumulating eight points from 11 matches. It also kept their mathematical hopes of reaching the playoffs alive.

Du Plessis and Kohli were on fire, scoring 64 (23 balls, 10 fours, 3 sixes) and 42 (27 balls, 2 fours, 4 sixes) respectively. 

Their blazing partnership of 92 runs in just 35 balls set the tone for Royal Challengers Bengaluru's chase of 148 runs. Despite some nervous moments, they handled the pressure well.

The duo dominated the Power Play, smashing 10 fours and seven sixes to amass 92 runs. They were particularly harsh on the Gujarat Titans bowlers, with Kohli launching two sixes off Mohit Sharma in the very first over.
