Virat Kohli’s finger injury
New Delhi: Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) vs. Gujarat Titans (GT) Fans raged during the IPL 2025 match, when star batsman Virat Kohli hurt his finger while fielding on deep mid-wicket. The incident occurred in the 12th over chasing the target of Gujarat Titans, when Sai Sudarshan swept Krunal Pandya’s ball vigorously.
Kohli tried to stop the ball, but the ball slipped strangely and collided with his right hand and fell on the boundary. As soon as the ball fell away, Kohli immediately sat on his knees and grabbed his injured finger. As soon as RCB’s medical staff reached the ground, there was silence in the stadium for some time.
After quick investigation on the field, Kohli was able to continue playing, but he looked uncomfortable and was repeatedly fingering his fingers.
Although the limit of his innings is not clear, fans are hoping that this will not affect his performance in the rest of the tournament. Earlier, after being sent for batting, RCB’s innings started poorly, in which Kohli himself was dismissed by 7 runs off 6 balls, which credit goes to Arshad Khan.
Mohammad Siraj (3/19) led the GT invasion and demolished the RCB’s top order, which the domestic team was reduced to 42/4 in 6.2 overs. However, Liam Livingstone (54 off 40 balls), Jitesh Sharma (33 off 21 balls) and Tim David (32 off 18 balls) made a strong comeback and brought RCB to a competitive score of 169/8.
Livingstone’s ended innings, which included three sixes in one over of Rashid Khan, which proved to be a respectable total of RCB, fans will keep a close watch on the updates related to his innings.
