Virat Kohli and great shots are synonymous with each other. He can execute every imaginable shot with utmost perfection. Kohli is a symbol of dedication, professionalism, and a true modern great, serving as a perfect example for young players aspiring to take cricket as their career.
The Royal Challengers Bangalore are still in contention in the Indian Premier League, thanks largely to Kohli‘s terrific batting form. He played another exceptional innings against Punjab Kings.
Watch Virat Kohli Hitting An Improbable Shot Against Sam Curran
During his 92-run innings, Virat Kohli played numerous shots that could become part of the highlight reel, but one shot, in particular, caught everyone’s attention.
The Indian superstar batsman was on 67 runs when Sam Curran came charging in to bowl at him. Kohli surprised almost everyone by executing an improbable shot.
Curran delivered a full-length ball, and instead of playing his signature cover drive, Kohli opted to stay in his crease and played a shot while kneeling on one knee. He hit the ball for a six over the deep mid-wicket region, much to the surprise of everyone in the stadium and the fans watching on television. Watch:
THE SHOT OF THE GOAT. 🤯

RCB remain alive in playoff race
After a slow start to their IPL 2024 campaign, RCB needs to keep winning to stay relevant in the playoff race. So far, they are doing just that.
Faf du Plessis‘ team beat Punjab Kings by a big 60-run margin at the HPCA Stadium and extended their current winning streak to four matches. This is the best current run for any team in IPL 2024, which shows that RCB is going nowhere when it comes to the playoff race.
However, the margin for error remains slim as they are still two points adrift of fourth place and have played one game more than 4th-placed Chennai Super Kings.
