...
"I was pretty determined tonight. Today I was just motivated to go then extra mile, because it was a crunch game for us. The chase wasn't that easy, it's never easy when you know that you have to keep up the run rate. Great stuff by KL Rahul and Shane Watson. It's all about keeping your enthusiasm, excitement and nerves in check. I try to focus within myself. When you are chasing 12-13 an over, it's important to not get bogged down despite losing wickets. It's all about understanding the situation," Kohli says.
...
VIRAT KOHLI has been adjudged as the MAN OF THE MATCH!
...
Chasing a steep target, RCB started off cautiously, before Kohli and Rahul shared a 94-run opening partnership. After Rahul's 38-run contribution, Watson came in with a 36-run cameo which tipped the balance in their favour. But throughout the innings, Virat Kohli, by playing some exquisite strokes, anchored the chase and ended with his second ton of this edition.

This was a masterclass by Kohli. He hadn't chased and finished the game for his side so far in then IPL, and he chose to do so this evening. Better late than never, as RCB keep up their hopes of making it to the playoffs.
