Virat Kohli's wife Anushka Sharma attended the match between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium on Monday.
An interesting moment transpired during the final over of the first innings. With two balls left, the Bangalore crowd went berserk and cheered loudly as MS Dhoni walked out to bat upon the dismissal of Ravindra Jadeja.
Meanwhile, as the camera panned to the audience, Anushka Sharma was seen saying 'They love him' to her friend. Not surprisingly, the moment has gone viral on social media.
You can watch Anushka's reaction to Dhoni's reception in the video below:
On the cricketing front, RCB lost the match narrowly by eight runs. Virat Kohli did not have a great time with the bat as he scored only six runs in a steep chase of 227, departing in the very first over.
Glenn Maxwell (76) and Faf du Plessis (62) fought well and smashed intent-filled half-centuries. However, the lack of support from the rest of the batting unit resulted in RCB's second loss in four home games this season.
With four points after five games overall so far, RCB currently occupy the seventh position in the points table.
"We were in the match for most of the time" - RCB captain Faf du Plessis after loss to CSK
Speaking after the conclusion of the match, RCB captain Faf du Plessis claimed that they were alive in the game for the majority of the period but let things slip away in the final overs of the chase. He also opined that they conceded 10-15 runs more in the first innings than they should have.
"We were in the match for most of the time but the last four overs, we let it slip away a little," Du Plessis said. "(On 226) I felt it was 10-15 too many. We went for a few runs to the short boundary to Dube. Last four was set up to be finished but we could not finish unfortunately."
"It is just one of those wickets where you bowl the first few balls and you figure out how good it is going to be," he added. "Today was one of those and you had to be at the top of your game as a bowler. Siraj was unbelievable but it is the difference of not going for a 20-plus over and probably going for 16 or something."
RCB will next face Punjab Kings (PBKS) on April 20 in Mohali.
