Virat Kohli was the first player in the nets Tuesday, training under the eye of the coaching staff for 40 minutes against both spinners and pacers. RCB faces GT next in IPL 2025, and Kohli poses the biggest challenge for the visiting side. At 36, he has really enjoyed playing against GT and with that record, RCB could be closing in on their third win on the trot. In this season's first two matches, Kohli scored 59 against KKR and 31 against CSK. This match, therefore, could be extremely vital in his context. The GT has played five matches against him, and he has scored 344 runs, including a not-out 101. He has an average of 114 and a strike rate of 143. His numbers at Chinnaswamy Stadium are even better. 143 runs in two matches averaging 143 and striking at 162. Virat Kohli From Today's Practice Session At M.

Kohli has struck 56 off 34 balls against Prasidh Krishna with a strike rate of 164 and selectively enjoys batting against Rashid Khan where he has scored 86 off 69 balls facing him in 8 innings, averaging 43 with a strike rate of 124.

The wicked-fast Delhi bowler has dismissed him just once in 11 innings, while Kohli scored 112 runs off 76 balls at an average of 112 with a strike rate of 147. Kohli has managed to score 27 runs off 24 balls at a strike rate of 112 against seamer Sai Kishore, who has, however, never dismissed Kohli in two innings. Other than Kagiso Rabada, who has caused some trouble to Kohli, the other South African pacer has dismissed him three times in seven innings. With not doing that, it can surely get difficult for them.
