IPL 2018: Kohli powered RCB to put forward respectable target against KKR
RCB set 175-run target for Kolkata Knight Riders in the second match of the day. Andre Russell might have got hit in the end, as his figures of 3/31 suggest, his contribution certainly helped Dinesh Karthik halt a strong RCB to 175.
Kohli lead from the front and remained unbeaten on 68 from 44 balls.

As per the current reports, KKR were 29/0 (3 overs) with Sunil Narine 24(14)* and Chris Lynn 3(4)* on the crease.
