Virat Kohli record vs Kolkata Knight Riders in CLT20
If one goes by the history of the now-defunct Champions League T20 tournament, RCB and KKR played the only one match against each other in 2011, and thus their clash occurred only once at that time. That was also the last time RCB could qualify for this tournament while KKR made their debut in this tournament’s season. The right-hander was out for a duck after facing four deliveries and gave away 13 runs in his first and last over.
During his whole IPL career from 2008 till 2025, the Delhi boy has bagged a total of 4 medals – 1 for the World Cup 2011, 1 for the Champions Trophy 2013, and 2 for the T20 World Cup 2024 and 2026 winners. This is the first time the former captain will participate in the tournament as a T20 World Cup winner.
