Twitter Erupts as RCB Continue Dominance at Wankhede.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru have regained their form in the Indian Premier League. And it came in the match against Mumbai Indians, which was taking place at Wankhede Stadium. The toss went in the favour of the home team, as Hardik Pandya made the call to bowl first.

And this decision didn't work in the favour of Mumbai Indians. Virat Kohli and Phil Salt dominated them from the start, following which Rajat Patidar and Tim David dominated in the death overs. It became challenging for any bowler to stop the wrath of the RCB batsmen. Eventually, the team posted 240 runs on the board, as Rajat Patidar, Virat Kohli, and Phil Salt posted fifties.

The start of the chase was not good for Mumbai Indians, as Rohit Sharma retired hurt. Tilak Varma also lost his wicket early, but Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya kept the game alive. Suyash Sharma and Jacob Duffy took their wickets, putting the game in RCB's hands. Despite a good effort by Sherfane Rutherford in the end, RCB won the game by 18 runs.

Here's how Twitter reacted to RCB's win.

The victory secured by RCB is solely dedicated to Virat Kohli. The team won this game by 18 runs, and it is clear that the Jersey Number 18 deserves the credit for the same.
