Jaipur: Virat Kohli is easily one of the most popular cricketers of the era and hence it is no surprise that fans flock outside stadiums, airports, and hotels just to get a glimpse of the former RCB captain. Scenes were no different when he reached Jaipur as fans gheraoed his car. It got a little out of control as fans started yelling, ‘Kohli, Kohli’. The cops had to intervene and take control of the mob and keep Kohli safe.

Meanwhile, it promises to be a showdown between this edition’s two most impactful batters in young Yashasvi Jaiswal and veteran Faf du Plessis when Rajasthan Royals take on Royal Challengers Bangalore, who are looking to avoid a hat-trick of defeats, in an IPL match here on Sunday.
Both Jaiswal and du Plessis are in scintillating form and are the top-two run-getters in the tournament so far.
While du Plessis is leading the scoring charts with 576 runs from 11 innings, including six half centuries and a best of 84, Jaiswal is a close second with 575 runs from 12 knocks that includes four fifties and a 124-run knock.
It remains to be seen who gets the better of the other in Sunday’s high-profile clash.
If both fire on Sunday, it will be a run feat for the spectators.
RCB will also look to avoid a hat-trick of defeats, having suffered losses against Mumbai Indians and laggards Delhi Capitals in their last two games.
