Virat Kohli was in the form of his life when Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) took on Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the 25th match of the ongoing IPL 2020 in Dubai. Kohli won the toss and chose to bat first.

He carried the team’s batting on his shoulders’ scoring 90* in 52 balls with 4 sixes and as many fours. The next best scorers for RCB were Padikkal (33) and Dube (22*). Kohli’s brilliant knock took his team to 169/4 in 20 overs, though at one time they were 67/3 in the 11th over.

During his brilliant knock, in the last over of the RCB innings bowled by Dwayne Bravo, the first ball was bowled full and wide outside off and Kohli decided to go on one knee and scooped it over behind square on the leg side for a boundary.

The shot reminded people of his RCB teammate AB de Villiers who is known for such ridiculous shots all around the ground, which have also earned him the moniker of Mr. 360.

Here is the video of the shot:
