The IPL 2025 had a fitting finish to its group-stage as Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) swatted aside Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the final game to make a grand entry into the playoffs. After RCB secured an emphatic victory over LSG, Virat Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma celebrated the moment together, exchanging a barrage of flying kisses.
Virat Kohli, Anushka Sharma Celebrate RCB's Special Moment With Flying Kisses
As soon as Jitesh Sharma dispatched Ayush Badoni's full-length delivery into the stands, former skipper Virat Kohli jumped off his seat and started celebrating the winning moment with his RCB teammates.
He was accompanied by Krunal Pandya and Romario Shepherd in the dugout before he made his way into the ground for a victory lap.
It's worth mentioning that Kohli's wife Anushka Sharma was present in the stands to support him and his team. The renowned Bollywood actress cheered for her husband throughout the game, even expressing her happiness at Kohli's blistering fifty.
So, when Kohli entered the ground, he thanked the crowd for their unwavering support while throwing flying kisses at the stand where Anushka was present. His ladylove reciprocated it with similar gestures, as the heartfelt moment was caught by the broadcasters.
Chasing a mammoth total of 228 runs, RCB found themselves in a precarious situation when former captain and in-form batter Virat Kohli made his way back to the dugout soon after completing his fifty.
However, the swashbuckling duo of Mayank Agarwal and Jitesh Sharma ensured the Royal Challengers never lost the momentum, eventually taking them past the finish line with eight balls to spare.
With the clinical win over LSG, RCB powered themselves to the qualifier 1 where they will face Punjab Kings on May 29, Thursday, at Mullanpur Stadium.
