The marquee batter's eyes filled with tears as his team booked the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 playoffs spot, bagging the 6th consecutive victory of the season. The M Chinnaswamy stadium saw celebrations erupting both inside the venue and outside, but it was Kohli's first reaction to the playoffs progression that many missed. However, a fan, sitting in the stands near the boundary rope, managed to record Virat's reaction.

Kohli, who leads the batting chart with 708 runs, and Du Plessis started on the offensive before rain halted their charge after the third over and suddenly the ball began to turn once play resumed.

Both openers waded their way through Chennai's spin charge from Maheesh Theekshana and Mitchell Santner as Kohli hit a couple of sixes.

New Zealand's Santner, a left-arm spinner, denied Kohli his fifty and got Du Plessis run out through a deflection from his finger at the non-strikers end.

Rajat Patidar, who hit 41, and Cameron Green, who struck an unbeaten 17-ball 38, then steadied the ship and hit back in a partnership of 71 off 28 balls.

Bengaluru returned strong with the ball and Glenn Maxwell struck on the first ball to send back
