In the Indian Premier League (IPL) match on April 24, 2026, Virat Kohli (Royal Challengers Bengaluru) showcased his extraordinary talent by scoring 81 runs off 44 balls, leading his team to a five-wicket victory against Gujarat Titans. Kohli's performance was historic; he became the first cricketer to score 10,000 T20 runs in India and the first to hit 300 sixes for a single IPL franchise. His innings included eight fours and four sixes, contributing to RCB's successful chase of 206 runs. Kohli's achievement also allowed him to reclaim the Orange Cap as the leading run-scorer of the season. Alongside him, Devdutt Padikkal added a quick 55 runs, ensuring RCB's victory despite an early scare when Kohli was dropped. The match was marked by Kohli's record-breaking feats and the celebratory reaction of his wife, Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma, in the stands.
