The 20th match of IPL 2023 between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Delhi Capitals (DC) was played at M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru where RCB defeated DC by 23 runs. After the match, where all the players and the coach of the team were seen shaking hands, the tussle between Virat Kohli and Sourav Ganguly was clearly visible. Its video is becoming quite viral.

After the match, all the players go out of the field after the match, they shake hands with each other, but this time something else was seen. Virat Kohli and Sourav Ganguly came face to face and looked at each other but did not even shake hands and the video is getting quite viral. The dispute them is quite old as when Ganguly was the Indian Cricket Board President, the news of differences between him and Kohli came to the fore. And now it looks like the news was true.

Brilliant bowling performance by RCB

Talking about the match, DC captain David Warner won the toss and decided to bowl. Batting first, RCB scored 174 runs at the loss of 6 wickets in 20 overs. Kohli was the highest run-scorer for RCB as he smashed a half-century against DC. He played an inning of 50 runs in 34 balls with the help of 6 fours and 1 six.

Chasing the target, DC had a horrible start as they lost their first three batters on the score of just 2 runs. Skipper Warner got a great start but couldn’t convert it into a big one. They kept losing wickets at regular intervals of time, however, Manish Pandey, who was playing at his domestic home ground, kept one end safe and scored a brilliant half-century.

However, later, Pandey got trapped LBW by Wanindu Hasaranga, who wasn’t having a great game until then. And it proved to be the final nail as they were able to score only 151 runs after losing 9 wickets in 20 overs. The batting woes from the Capitals continued. Five defeats in five games for them now, with things looking quite grim.
