Anushka Sharma’s Reaction Goes Viral as Virat Kohli Misses 50 in RCB vs CSK IPL 2024 Do-Or-Die Match

In a high-stakes match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the IPL 2024, RCB batters came out with great intent to secure a playoff spot. Needing to beat CSK by 18 runs to qualify for the top-four, RCB’s opening duo of Virat Kohli and Faf Du Plessis set the tone for a massive total. Despite Kohli falling just three runs short of a half-century, De Plessis led the charge with a solid performance.

However, controversy struck when Kohli was caught on the boundary ropes by Daryl Mitchell off Mitchell Santner. Anushka Sharma, Kohli’s wife and actor, expressed disbelief at the decision, with her reaction going viral on social media. The third umpire’s call left the RCB camp visibly unhappy, with fans and players alike questioning the decision.

Ahead of the crucial clash, Kohli shed light on his high strike rate in the tournament, attributing it to the Impact Player Rule. This rule allows teams to introduce a 12th player from a five-player list, disrupting the balance of the playing XI. Kohli’s comments were echoed by Rohit Sharma, who raised concerns about the impact on all-rounders like Washington Sundar and Shivam Dube.

As the IPL 2024 season unfolds, the Impact Player Rule continues to spark debate among players and fans alike, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the tournament.
