NEW DELHI: The feeling of emerging victorious cannot be described in words and it becomes even sweeter, like a cherry on top of the cake when it follows six successive defeats.
And it was quite visible on Virat Kohli 's face after Royal Challengers Bengaluru snapped their six-match losing streak and clinched a comfortable 35-run victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad for their second win of the season.
The former RCB skipper Kohli couldn't contain his amusement as soon as Yash Dayal completed the final over of the game. Kohli burst into uncontrollable laughter the instant the young pacer delivered the last ball.
Talking about the match, Rajat Patidar explosive fifty and a collective effort from the spinners set up RCB's win over SRH.
Patidar's rapid 50 off just 20 balls sharply contrasted with Virat Kohli's composed 51 off 43 balls as RCB posted a total of 206 for seven after choosing to bat.
For a team that has breached the 250-run mark thrice season, the target was very gettable but the in-form SRH batting line-up could not deliver on this occasion and ended at 171 for eight in 20 overs.
It was a much-needed result for RCB, who lost seven of their first eight games. The loss was SRH's third in eight matches.
