“We were not playing good enough cricket” – Virat Kohli on RCB’s performances in the first half of IPL 2024
Virat Kohli has said that RCB did not meet expectations during the opening stages of IPL 2024. After receiving the Player of the Match award for his 92-run effort against PBKS, Kohli stated:
“This is not an ideal scenario as we knew we were not playing good enough cricket. The starting point was Kolkata, that game gave us a bit more confidence. A point came where we wanted to play for self respect.”

He continued:
“We wanted to not play for a win which doesn’t make us proud or the fans proud. We are on a roll but the thought is always there if you could have got this momentum well earlier, these calculations wouldn’t have come into picture.”

Virat Kohli now holds the Orange Cap, having scored 634 runs in 12 games.
