Dreams do come true, and Virat Kohli by the end of 2024 perhaps had so many dreams of touching the Indian Premier League (IPL) at least once after years of hard work with the bat in the field. He perhaps prayed to hold the trophy at least once in his hands, but God is kind enough to give him the chance in successive seasons as the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) won their second consecutive title of the Indian Premier League (IPL), beating the Gujarat Titans in 2026.
Virat Kohli’s superb consistency in IPL 2026
Throughout the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026, RCB’s star performer and the opening batter, Virat Kohli, has been consistent with the bat in most occasions of the campaign. From the very first game to the final, he has batted with an aggressive approach and never allowed the opponent bowlers to put pressure on him.
The veteran finished with 675 runs in 16 innings of the event at an average of 56.25 and a blistering strike rate of nearly 165.84, thanks to his five half-centuries and a memorable knock of 105 runs, which came against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Raipur. This is the fourth consecutive time the right-handed batter has crossed the 600-run mark in an IPL edition since 2023.
In the final of the legaue, he remained unbeaten on 75 runs off 42 balls at a strike rate of nearly 180 with the help of nine boundaries and three sixes.
Virat Kohli’s performance in all phases of IPL 2026
For a long time, there was doubt on Kohli’s aggressive approach inside the powerplay (1-6) with the bat. Many claimed that his slow batting used to put pressure on RCB’s lower order to score rapid runs in the death overs and they used to finish 10-15 runs short on many occasions. But since the last season, the Delhi-born has reinvented himself with some innovative shots around the park.
In IPL 2026, Kohli has thumped 360 runs in 16 innings of the IPL inside the powerplay at an average of around 52 and a strike rate of 175, thanks to 47 boundaries and 11 sixes with the best score of 40.
Inside the middle overs (7-15), the former RCB batter has collected 249 runs in nine innings at an average of 43.20 and a powerful strike rate of around 143 with 18 boundaries and 10 over boundaries at the best score of 59 runs during this phase.
When it comes to the death overs (16-20), Kohli has blasted 60 runs in just 26 balls without being dismissed at a strike rate of 230.
RCB’s road to glory in IPL 2026
Bengaluru finished the league-stage of the points table at the top with nine victories in 14 clashes at a net run rate of +0.783. They began the event in a clinical way with five victories out of the first seven encounters before completing a chase by nine wickets against the Delhi Capitals when they bundled out the Delhi Capitals (DC) for just 75 runs. That boosted their NRR a lot.
They ended the group-stage of the IPL 2026 with three successive victories and continued the superb touch in the Playoffs. And India's Virat Kohli was at the centre of all the games with his passion and consistency with the bat.
