Twist in the tale? ?
An excellent catch by @ImVKohli, just as @vijayshankar260 gets his 50, breaks an awesome partnership! Can they take advantage now?

During the post-match interview, RCB’s coach Sanjay Bangar gave a massive update about Kohli’s health. He informed that Kohli had a niggle in his knee, but he also mentioned that the injury is not too serious.
“Yeah, he had a bit of a niggle in his knee. But I don’t think there is anything serious. Having score two back-to-back hundreds within a gap of 4 days. He is somebody who not only wants to contribute with the bat but even when he is fielding. He did a lot of running around. 40 overs a couple of days ago and today, for 35 overs he was on the field. He was giving his best. So it is going to bother at some point but I don’t think its anything serious,” Bangar said.

“A lot of people feel my T20 cricket is declining, but I don’t feel like that at all. I feel I am playing my best again, enjoying myself, hitting gaps and big ones at the end. You have to rise to the occasion when the situation demands, and I take a lot of pride in doing, and I’ve been doing it a while now. I feel really good in my game right now,” said Kohli in a mid-innings chat with the broadcasters after taking Bangalore to a competitive 197/5.
