RCB's Title Hopes Hinge on Virat Kohli's Performance in IPL 2024
RCB's chance to win the IPL 2024 title depends on Virat Kohli's performance in the remaining matches.
The Royal Challengers Bangalore amazed fans with a strong comeback in the Indian Premier League 2024, winning six games in a row to reach the playoffs. After winning only one of their first seven games, their season turned around largely due to Virat Kohli's consistent performance.
While many doubted RCB early on, Kohli kept scoring heavily. He maintained top form throughout the season, keeping the coveted Orange Cap. His peak performance came just in time to push RCB into the playoffs.
Can Rajasthan Royals Stop Virat Kohli?
With 708 runs in 14 matches, including five fifties and a century, Kohli is now 265 runs away from breaking his own single-season record of 973 runs. He set this record in 2016 with 4 centuries and 7 fifties, though RCB lost in the final to Sunrisers Hyderabad. Additionally, Kohli is just 29 runs short of reaching 8000 IPL runs.
Kohli aims for new records but also yearns for RCB's first title. After a challenging path to the playoffs, here’s why Bangalore has a real shot at the trophy if Kohli continues his stellar performance.
How Kohli's Batting Could Secure RCB's First Title
In the last six games, Kohli scored 329 runs, surpassing 40 runs in five matches, with a high score of 92. He has been among the top scorers in nine matches this season, leading RCB to victory in six of them. For RCB, the strategy is clear: if Kohli keeps scoring, their first title is within reach.
Kohli needs to treat every game as crucial, including the Eliminator, to reach the final on Sunday. He will face the Rajasthan Royals, against whom he scored his only century this season, albeit in a losing cause. However, the scenario has changed for the RCB opener.
With RCB winning five consecutive matches and RR struggling with four straight losses, the revived team will rely on Kohli to lead them to their first IPL trophy.
