Royal Challengers Bangalore, under stand-in captain Virat Kohli, had a good day on the field in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 as they registered a fine win over Punjab Kings in Mohali on Thursday.

If seeing Kohli leading the RCB once again wasn't treat enough, RCB fans got two more reasons to rejoice as Kohli not only scored a half-century but also led his team to a 24-run win.

There was a funny incident too. During PBKS' innings, in the middle of a DRS call, RCB star duo Kohli and Glenn Maxwell could be seen playing rock-paper scissors.

Later Maxwell even commented on the incident. "Poor predictable Virat, always goes paper @imVkohli," he wrote in a tweet. Virat Kohli and Glenn Maxwell were playing Stone Paper Scissors during the DRS.

Royal Challengers Bangalore, despite being a star-studded squad, have been quite inconsistent in the IPL 2023.

As the IPL 2023 reached its business ends, RCB not only need to win their remaining matches but also hope that the teams' results which are above them go in their favour. While analysing RCB's show so far, former India opener Aakash Chopra mentioned a couple of interesting points after RCB's latest loss against Mumbai Indians.
