In a disappointing performance, Virat Kohli (star batter for Royal Challengers Bengaluru) was dismissed for a golden duck during the IPL 2026 match against Mumbai Indians in Raipur on Sunday. This marked his second consecutive duck, having failed to score in the previous match against Lucknow Super Giants. Kohli misplayed a delivery from Deepak Chahar, leading to a simple catch for Raj Angad Bawa. Mumbai Indians struggled early in their innings, falling to 28/3 within three overs. Despite a solid partnership between Naman Dhir (47 runs) and Tilak Varma (57 runs off 42 balls), they could only manage 166 runs. Bhuvneshwar Kumar was the standout bowler, taking four wickets for 23 runs, effectively dismantling the MI batting order and demonstrating his skill on a challenging pitch. Kumar credited careful planning and disciplined execution for his success, acknowledging the tricky conditions throughout the match.
