The eliminator match of the ongoing season of IPL was played yesterday on 22 May between Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RR vs RCB). Let us tell you that in this match RCB had to face defeat by 4 wickets against Rajasthan.

So once again RCB’s dream of winning the IPL trophy was shattered. On the other hand, now a big statement from former Australian cricket team opener Matthew Hayden has come out regarding this defeat of RCB.

Matthew Hayden’s big statement came out on RCB’s defeat in the eliminator match

Let us tell you that in a discussion on Star Sports, Matthew Hayden said – Okay RCB lost, look this defeat has nothing to do with Virat Kohli. You know he put his whole soul and heart at stake. Dhruv Jarel’s runout in the match was brilliant. For me Kohli’s figures are ridiculous. He has 8 thousand IPL and a lot of T20 runs.

Hayden further said- One thing I like about Virat Kohli is that he believes in competition. You look for a player like him in the team who is the leader of the franchise, and you want a player like Kohli 100 percent in your team. He just scores runs and this season has been great for him.

On the other hand, if we give you information about Virat Kohli’s performance in IPL 2024, then he has scored a total of 741 runs in 15 matches at an average of 61.75 and an excellent strike rate of 157.70. Also, he is the highest run-scorer in the ongoing tournament.

So now Kohli will be seen playing for the Indian cricket team in the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024 starting from June 2. It will be worth watching how he is going to perform for Team India in the upcoming T20 World Cup.
