The inclusion of the 36-year old in Indian Premier League (IPL) gave him a great fan base in India. He doesn’t have a great season this year with the bat, but he scored a 38-ball 77 in the final against Sunrisers and gave his side a great start to the chase of 209. However, his side, RCB still fell 8 runs short of victory as Sunrisers won their maiden IPL trophy.
RCB skipper Virat Kohli has been the run machine for RCB scoring 973 runs in this edition of IPL and being the first cricketer to score 4 hundreds in a single edition of IPL. Virat won the orange cap (for most runs) and Bhuvneshwar Kumar won the purple cap (for most wickets) in the 9th edition of IPL.
