On Saturday, after the amazing Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) entry into the playoffs, Universal boss Chris Gayle entered the dressing room of his team and was warmly welcomed by Virat Kohli and his team. Suddenly, RCB fans went into a frenzy after this event took place. Kohli’s former teammate was the first to congratulate him and inform him that he was the record holder for the most sixes in the IPL 2024 season.
The dynamic and energetic presence of former Indian skipper Virat Kohli and West Indian swashbuckler Chris Gayle revived memories of bygone days of the super fun spirit of team bonding in the Royal Challengers Bengaluru camp as they prepared themselves for the playoffs.

RCB crushed CSK in a very crucial match at the M Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru to enter the IPL end-of-the-season games, where they will currently take on third-place Rajasthan Royals in the Eliminator. The team dominating that game proceeds to play the losing team of Qualifier 1, which will include table-clinchers Kolkata Knight Riders facing the second-place Sunrisers Hyderabad.
RCB finished fourth thanks to a net run rate bonus after a 27-run victory over CSK, thus sealing the fourth and final playoff spot for both sides as they finished on 14 points each. It was RCB’s sixth consecutive win—an impressive feat considering that the RCB had lost seven of their first eight matches in the competition this season.
