When Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain Virat Kohli stepped onto the Sharjah Cricket Stadium to face Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) in the 31st match of the IPL 2020, it was his 200th appearance for the RCB team.
Though it was his 185th IPL game for the franchise, he also has 15 Champions League T20 (CLT20) outings to his name. Virat Kohli was snapped by RCB in the 2008 IPL U19 players’ draft and since then the Indian skipper has accumulated 5668 runs at an average of 38.55 and strike rate of 131.41. He's scored five hundreds and 38 fifties as well in the IPL itself.
"RCB means a lot, not many understand that emotion. 200 games for them is unbelievable, I wouldn't have believed it in 2008. It is an honor, they've kept me and I have stayed on,” Kohli said during the toss, which he won and chose to bat first.
