During Match 43 of the IPL 2023 against the Lucknow Super Giants, renowned cricketer Virat Kohli once again displayed his exceptional athleticism by making a sensational catch. Ayush Badoni and Deepak Hoodie were at the crease for the first four overs of the second innings for LSG, who were pursuing a target of 127.
Badoni played an uppish drive on the first ball of the fifth over, bowled by Josh Hazlewood. Kohli, who was coming in from behind, leapt to his maximum height and made an exceptional catch.
After completing the catch, Virat Kohli blew a kiss and requested that the audience cheer loudly for them. It is presumed that Kohli’s celebration was a response to Gautam Gambhir’s gesture of silencing the crowd at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium following LSG’s emphatic victory over RCB in Match 15 of the season.
