Virat Kohli suffers a rare dismissal in 90s in the history of IPL

NEW DELHI: Star Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) batter Virat Kohli on Thursday suffered the misfortune of falling in the 90s for only the second time in his illustrious IPL career.
The first instance dates back to 2013, when he narrowly missed out on a century, scoring 99 against the Delhi Capitals in Delhi. This rare event serves as a testament to Kohli's remarkable consistency and exceptional performance in the IPL throughout the years.
A classic 47-ball 92 by Kohli and Rajat Patidar's breezy fifty powered RCB to 241/7 against Punjab Kings in a rain-interrupted IPL match in Dharamsala.
Kohli, who was dropped on 0 and 10, made PBKS pay as he timed the ball nicely, used his feet and wrists to bring up his sixth IPL fifty this season.
Despite being close to a century, Kohli managed to maintain his composure and contribute significantly to his team's efforts. His ability to score runs consistently has made him one of the top players in the league.
In the process, Kohli also became the second batter after KL Rahul to score 600+ runs in four separate seasons in the history of the cash-rich league.
The IPL has seen many brilliant performances over the years, but crossing the 600-run mark in a single season is a testament to a player's skill and consistency.
Kohli's dedication to the sport and his team is evident through his performances, even when he falls short of personal milestones. This dismissal in the 90s is a reminder of the fine line between success and near misses in cricket.
