RCB and Virat Kohli end 18-year wait for an IPL title

RCB are among the teams playing from the very first IPL season in 2008. They had previously played three finals in 2009, 2011, and 2016. In the 2009 final, they lost to Deccan Chargers, while in 2011, they lost to Chennai Super Kings and to SunRisers Hyderabad in 2016.

Virat Kohli has also been an integral member of the team since the inaugural season in 2008, being the only player to play for a single franchise in the IPL. Kohli was also a part of the previous three finals, which they had lost.

However, the team finally ended the 18-year wait to win their maiden IPL title with a historic win over PBKS in the final this season. Virat Kohli also played a massive role in the victory, scoring 657 runs from 15 matches, finishing as their leading run-getter, at an average of 54.75 and a strike-rate of 144.71 with eight half-centuries.

All of his eight half-centuries also came in a winning cause this season, showcasing his consistency throughout the tournament with the bat.
