The India captain was at the crease unbeaten on 72 off 53 balls when AB de Villiers hit the winning runs in an eight-wicket win over Rajasthan Royals.

The run chase had been a relatively easy one thanks to more excellence from Yuzvendra Chahal.

The Bangalore leg-spinner took three for 24 including the prize wicket of in-form Sanju Samson, as Rajasthan managed 154 for six from their 20 overs.

Devdutt Padikkal made a third half-century from his first four IPL innings, and shared an alliance worth 99 with Kohli as Bangalore eased to the win in Abu Dhabi.
