Bengaluru, April 10, 2025 –
Cricket fans were treated to a historic night during Match 24 of IPL 2025, as Virat Kohli once again etched his name into the record books. In front of a packed M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) legend became the first batter in Indian Premier League history to cross the monumental milestone of 1000 boundaries.
The record-breaking moment came in signature Kohli style — a thunderous six off Axar Patel, sending the ball deep into the Bengaluru crowd. The stadium erupted, and social media platforms instantly flooded with celebrations. Kohli’s tally now stands at 721 fours and 279 sixes, showcasing his remarkable consistency across seasons.
This feat not only solidifies his dominance in the IPL but also places him atop the chart for the most boundaries in history, further stretching the gap between him and his contemporaries.
A Silent Assassin: KL Rahul Returns with a Vengeance
Despite the fanfare around Kohli’s achievement, it was KL Rahul who truly turned the match on its head. Leading the Delhi Capitals (DC), Rahul returned to his hometown with intent and elegance. He played a sublime knock of 93 off just 53 deliveries*, guiding his team to a convincing six-wicket win over RCB.
Rahul, known for his calm approach and clinical shot selection, constructed a remarkable partnership with Tristan Stubbs, who remained unbeaten on 38. Their 111-run stand for the fifth wicket broke all previous records for DC in this slot, proving vital in chasing down RCB’s seemingly competitive total of 163/7.
This performance was particularly significant for Rahul, who had been under scrutiny for his form in recent tournaments. His innings not only silenced critics but also reignited Delhi’s campaign in IPL 2025.
