In preparation for their intense Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 matchup against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on March 28, India and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) star batsman Virat Kohli was at the top of his game during the team's net practice at Chepauk Stadium. As he made incredible hits against his own team's bowlers, Kohli displayed his signature elegance. His ease and finesse only served to increase the excitement among the RCB's enormous fan base. The seasoned batter's form was on display during the training session, suggesting that he may have an explosive game in the approaching match.
Cricket fans are giddy with anticipation for the much-awaited match between MS Dhoni's CSK and Kohli's RCB. Fans are anxiously awaiting Friday in anticipation of seeing these two titans of Indian cricket square off. By posting a video of Kohli hammering huge shots during the net session on their official social media account, RCB increased the excitement.

Fans now have even more cause to think that the RCB legend is playing at his best ahead of the pivotal match against CSK after the video ended with Kohli stating, "Six, thank you," with confidence.
The match is still one of the most watched in IPL history, even if the rivalry is lopsided in terms of head-to-head statistics, with CSK clearly having the advantage. Legends like Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni have undoubtedly added to the intensity and popularity of the clash.
The team's victory over the Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL 2025 season opening was largely due to Kohli's outstanding batting performance, which included an undefeated 59 off 36 balls. RCB will be eager to end their miserable record of losing all of their games in Chepauk since the first IPL season.
On the other hand, CSK will be looking for atonement following their loss to RCB in Bengaluru during a virtual playoff elimination match last year. One thing is certain as the cricket community looks to Chepauk: fans can anticipate an exciting matchup between two of the IPL's most renowned teams.
