G.O.A.T. Virat Kohli, expressed great joy following his outstanding century in RCB's impressive triumph against SunRisers Hyderabad during the IPL 2023 match. In the dressing room, Kohli engaged in a conversation with his teammate Glenn Maxwell, discussing his remarkable six, which matched a record distance of 103 meters.

The official social media accounts of Royal Challengers Bangalore posted a video capturing the exuberant celebrations of the team in their dressing room after securing a victorious outcome.

"Yes, you little strong boys, 103, I am taking that with me. Why are you surprised? Look at him. That's my biggest 6 of this season so I will take it anyways!" Kohli is heard saying to which Maxwell responded "It's a short boundary, 59 yards."

Virat Kohli smashed a powerful six, propelling Nitish Kumar Reddy's delivery into the stands, covering an impressive distance of 103 meters. This incredible shot occurred on the first ball of the ninth over during Royal Challengers Bangalore's innings. Kohli demonstrated tremendous strength as he unleashed a forceful swing, clearing the boundary ropes with ease despite the delivery being of a slightly shorter length. 

Kohli's magnificent innings continued as he reached a century off just 63 balls, contributing significantly to Royal Challengers Bangalore's comprehensive eight-wicket victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad. 

With 538 runs from 13 matches in the current season, Virat Kohli holds the fourth position on the list of leading run-scorers. Yesterday's win has put RCB at the fourth spot for qualifying for the play-offs this season.
