RCB skipper Virat Kohli is always in the game and he has a reaction to almost everything that happens on the cricket field and when Murugan Ashwin dropped an easy catch, he sported a defeated look. Ashwin dropped a sitter off Yuzvendra Chahal to give Chris Lynn to second life.

Virat Kohli is one of the most expressive players on the cricket field and is never shy of expressing his emotions. He is one of those captains who shows his disappointment at players if they commit a mistake and gives them a long stare. This time, however, the RCB skipper was once again caught on camera sporting a look that hasn't been seen for a while after Murugan Ashwin dropped a sitter. 

Put into bat first, Royal Challengers Bangalore scored 175 in their 20 overs. After a good a start, it was Virat Kohli who played an excellent innings, 68 off 44 balls, who helped RCB finish with a flourish. The Indian captain was magnificent as he was not timing the ball well at the start of his innings but once he found his timing he looked in ominous touch and helped the hosts score 66 runs in the last five overs. 

Chasing 176, Kolkata Knight Riders were off to a flying start as Chris Lynn and Sunil Narine as they found the boundary with ease. Narine lived a charmed life as a lot of edges and top-edges fell in no man's land as the West Indian continued to torment the RCB bowlers. 

However, there was an opportunity in the 4th over and Murugan Ashwin, playing his first game of the season, spilt the chance. Chahal who was struck for a boundary off the first ball of the over tossed one up against Lynn who went after it. But the hard-hitting Aussie batsman got a leading edge and it went towards extra-cover where Murugan Ashwin back-tracked and dropped an easy catch. 

Virat Kohli was very disappointed as it was a sitter and RCB had missed a huge opportunity to get their first break-through and had the look of a defeated man on his face.
