 Kohli has been performing well for his side in the current edition of the IPL. The right-handed batter has made two 40+ scores in five matches and played a crucial role for his side during their encounter against the five-time champions MI. However, Kohli (1 off 3 balls) failed to get going against the defending champions CSK in RCB’s last match. The fans are yet to see the best of Kohli in IPL 2022 and he might showcase his talent against the Capitals.

The Red Army will want to win their next encounter against the strong-looking Capitals. To note, skipper Faf du Plessis, after scoring a fifty in the first match, has not been able to perform as well. The South African batter will also want to contribute with the bat.

Talking about the overall numbers of Kohli in the IPL, the senior batter has played 212 matches in which he has amassed a total of 6390 runs. The 33-year-old has an average of 37.15 and a strike rate of 129.98 in the toughest franchise-based league. He has stroked 42 half-centuries and has five hundreds in IPL history.
