The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) team member Cameron Green showed a surprised look after Virat Kohli ran out a player during their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 game. It happened while playing against the Gujarat Titans team at the Chinnaswamy Stadium on Saturday, May 4th. The player from Australia had a shocked expression first, then his face looked a little strange.
The event occurred during the thirteenth over of the innings. To dismiss Shahrukh Khan, Virat Kohli raced in from backward point and hurled the ball at the stumps at the non-striker’s end. The right-hander looked threatening, but he had to walk back for 37 from 24 deliveries, including five fours and a six.
The Royal Challengers played well when bowling. Faf du Plessis won the toss and chose to bowl first. Mohammed Siraj, Vijaykumar Vyshak, and Yash Dayal each took two wickets. Cameron Green and Karn Sharma took one wicket each. Together they limited the home team to a score of 147 runs.

The Royal Challengers have already defeated the Titans in this IPL season. This match happened at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad city. The team that won the 2022 IPL trophy batted really well. They scored 200 runs in their 20 overs.
After Du Plessis got off to a quick start, Virat Kohli and Will Jacks hammered the Titans bowlers, chasing down the goal with more than three overs to spare. Jacks was particularly impressive, scoring 29 runs off two overs apiece from Mohit Sharma and Rashid Khan. The Indian batsman hit 70*, while Jacks struck a century off 41 deliveries.
On Saturday, the Royal Challengers beat Gujarat Titans. Even though they won two matches in a row, it is hard for the Royal Challengers to make it to the playoffs this season. Gujarat Titans also have a tough road ahead to reach the knockout rounds, as they have won only four out of ten matches.
