Highest partnership in IPL history: Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers met again just over a year after they took on the Mumbai Indians. The Gujarat Lions are their opponents this time.

As a result, both players completed their century in record time. In the end, the score was 248/3.

In the last over, AB de Villiers stayed unbeaten on 129 from 52 balls, while Kohli was out for 109 from 55 balls. RCB beat the Lions 144 runs to win by bowling them out for 104 runs in the second innings.

During a 2015 IPL match at the Wankhede Stadium, the Royal Challengers Bangalore won the toss and elected to bat first. As Chris Gayle went down early in the game, they were off to a bad start. AB de Villiers and Virat Kohli, on the other hand, put up a wonderful partnership during their time together. De Villiers had no idea what the Mumbai Indians’ flimsy bowling attack was capable of, which gave the opposition no chance.

The South Africans thrashed the bowling attack, scoring 133 runs in just 59 deliveries. Kohli had a score of 82 runs off just 50 deliveries. As a result, the score was 235/1. Although MI made every effort to score runs, they were only able to do so 196 times.

As a result of delivering 27 extras, the bowlers failed to aid their own cause by delivering such a large number of extras.

In response, Marsh remained unbeaten on 79 runs off 49 balls after Gilchrist was removed for 106 runs off 55 balls. The Royal Challengers Bangalore team collapsed in the chase, falling short by 111 runs thanks to Piyush Chawla’s four-wicket haul.

As a result, the Daredevils did not go down without a fight in the match, coming within 21 runs of the goal despite their stiff opposition. Although Kohli and Gayle are to be given credit for their massive partnership, the target set was simply too high.

Fifth Highest Partnership David Warner and Naman Ojha – 189*
