Star cricketer Virat Kohli made a great start in the 62nd match of the IPL against Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Delhi Capitals on Sunday. It seemed that Kohli would once again play a big innings but it did not happen. He was caught by experienced fast bowler Ishant Sharma on the fourth ball of the fourth over. He could score only 27 runs in 13 balls with the help of one four and three sixes. Ishant bowled a length ball outside the off stump, which was blocked by Kohli and caught by wicketkeeper Abhishek Porel. As soon as Kohli was out, there was silence in Bengaluru's M Chinnaswamy Stadium.
