IPL 2025: Over The Past Two Seasons, We’ve Seen ‘Virat Kohli 2.0', Hayden Hails Ex-RCB Skipper's Unbeaten Fifty
After Virat Kohli: After Virat Kohli's unbeaten half-century led Royal Challengers Bengaluru to a thrilling win over defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the IPL 2025 opener, former Australian opener Matthew Hayden praised the right-hander's "chasing masterclass," calling his recent form a dynamic "Kohli 2.0" on the field.
Kohli, the most prolific run-getter in IPL history, picked up from where he left off in 2024, remaining unbeaten on 59 in the chase of 175 after a scintillating opening stand with Phil Salt (56 off 31) as RCB beat KKR by seven wickets at Eden Gardens.
Following the RCB's win, Hayden analysed Kohli’s approach in the chase and said the 175 was the perfect total for the former skipper to chase down.
