KL Rahul lit up the Dubai International Cricket Stadium with sixes as he slammed a brilliant and record-breaking 132* in 69 balls in the sixth match of the IPL 2020 between Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).
RCB skipper Kohli won the toss and chose to bowl first as is the norm, but the decision backfired, as Rahul decimated RCB bowlers at will. Dale Steyn went for 57 runs in his 4 overs, while Umesh Yadav gave away 35 runs in his 3. Shivam Dube went for 23 runs in the 20th over, as Rahul brought up his second IPL ton and first in the IPL 2020 and as KXIP captain.

KXIP posted a mammoth 206 runs on the board and partially, the RCB captain Virat Kohli was responsible for KL Rahul’s carnage which included 7 sixes and 14 fours and got KXIP 74 runs in the last 4 overs.
Virat Kohli, who is usually one of the safest fielders for RCB on the boundary in death overs, inexplicably dropped KL Rahul, not once, but twice, when the KXIP captain was batting on 83 aur 89 respectively.
Here is the video of Kohli dropping Rahul’s catches, twice:
As Rahul smashed the RCB bowlers all over the Dubai stadium, Twitterverse got to work and roasted Kohli big time for his follies and we have some of the best memes and funny tweets for you.
