IPL 2025: Anushka Sharma Reacts In Dismay As Virat Kohli Gets Caught At Long-Off During LSG Vs RCB Clash; Video

In a pivotal IPL 2025 encounter between Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium on May 27, RCB's chase of a daunting 228-run target faced a significant setback. Virat Kohli, who had been anchoring the innings with a fluent 54 off 30 balls, was dismissed in the 12th over. Attempting to loft Avesh Khan over long-off, Kohli was caught by Ayush Badoni, leaving RCB at a critical juncture in their pursuit.

As RCB recalibrates its strategy following Kohli's exit, the team faces an uphill battle to achieve the target set by LSG. The outcome of this match holds significant implications for both teams' standings in the tournament.
