Millions of RCB supporters were also heartbroken following yesterday’s match as it marked the end of Virat Kohli Captaincy.
Virat Kohli’s ambition of leading the Royal Challengers Bangalore to victory as captain has not come true. Kohli struggled to win the elimination match with his bat and then his fielding.
However, it appeared as if the Kolkata Knight Riders’ victory had already been written in stone.
As a result, he will return to the big stage in the IPL next year. However, neither will be able to determine the field nor will they be seen celebrating as much as the bowlers after taking wickets. Read-Virat Kohli Hails M S Dhoni Innings

Virat Kohli, the captain of Royal Challengers Bangalore, has captained the team in 160 matches. Four of them have been won, while the team has lost 80.
Under Virat’s captaincy, the Royal Challengers Bangalore team reached the final in 2014, but Hyderabad stood in the way of Kohli and the trophy. Last season, the Kohli-led team made it to the playoffs, but they were defeated in the eliminator match, as they were the year before.
Virat has accomplished a lot in Bangalore jerseys as a batsman with a captaincy. Kohli scored 42 fifties in the IPL while playing for the RCB. He also had five centuries to his name. Not only that, but Virat has the record for most runs scored in a single season. No batsman has ever broken the record.
