History has been scripted at the Narendra Modi Stadium as Royal Challengers Bengaluru ended their 18-year wait and lifted the IPL trophy for the first time. It was an emotional moment for the fans and Virat Kohli in particular, who broke into tears after the win. 

Long Wait For Kohli Comes To An End

It has been a long wait for Virat Kohli as the RCB star waited for 18 years to get his hands on the trophy for the first time in his career. It was certainly an emotional moment for Virat as he managed to win it in his fourth attempt. Notably, RCB, reached the finals in 2009, 2011, and 2016 but suffered defeats on all three occasions.

Virat's worst heartbreak was in 2016 when they came close against SRH and Virat too scored 973 runs in that season, which is a record for most runs by a player in a single season. 

Even in the recently concluded final, Virat scored 43 (35), which featured three fours and set-up a crucial platform for Royal Challengers Bengaluru. It is worth noting that Kohli got emotional even before the end of the match as he sensed the victory in the air and couldn't hold back his tears.
