New Delhi: Virat Kohli will be on the cusp of creating numerous records when he walks out to play at the M Chinnaswamy in Bengaluru against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. RCB would be hoping for the top spot and playoff qualification when they lock horns with bottom-placed Super Kings.
CSK are already out of contention and will be playing for pride as they have never lost both league matches to their opponents in a season. Both CSK and RCB met earlier in the season and the Bengaluru franchise defeated CSK at Chepauk for the first time since the inaugural season. RCB has been fabulous in this edition and their 50-run victory against CSK set a perfect platform for the franchise, which has never won the IPL.
Here’s a list of records Kohli could break in CSK match:
- Virat Kohli is 53 runs away from 8500 runs in IPL
- Virat Kohli is 10 runs away from 9500 runs in India in T20s
- Virat Kohli is 6 fours away from 750 fours in IPL
- Virat Kohli is 7 sixes away from 50 sixes against CSK in IPL
- Virat Kohli is 1 six away from 300 sixes for RCB. (IPL + CLT20)
Meanwhile, Royal Challengers Bengaluru are in the third spot on the points table with 14 points in 10 matches, only behind Mumbai Indians (MI) and Gujarat Titans (GT) on net run-rate. Star batter Kohli has also been sensational so far being one of the leading run-scorers this edition with 447 runs. The last time RCB faced CSK in Bengaluru was in IPL 2024 and they won by 27 runs in a thrilling game to enter the playoffs.
