MI vs RCB: After Virat Kohli's stories on LSG match, Naveen-ul-Haq hits back with his own

The ongoing IPL 2023 is proving to be one of the most competitive editions in the history of the tournament. As the tournament heads towards its business end, all the teams are in contention and is yet to be seen which team qualifies for the playoffs. In the 54th match of the tournament, Rohit Sharma's Mumbai Indians are taking on Faf Du Plessis and Virat Kohli's Royal Challengers Bangalore at the fabled Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai. Whenever RCB enter the playing field these days, there is always a lot of talk around Virat Kohli's fight with Gautam Gambhir and Naveen-Ul-Haq and this game was no different.

Contradictory to his capability and his reputation, Royal Challengers Bangalore's former skipper Virat Kohli fell prey to Mumbai Indians' Jason Behrendorff who hails from Australia. Much to Kohli's misfortune, Du Plessis was dropped on the previous bowl, but Kohli did not get a respite as he was caught by Ishan Kishan. Koli was dismissed on 1 off 4 deliveries.
