Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain Virat Kohli on Tuesday night made a sparkling start to the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2016 tournament, when he smashed a quickfire 75 from 51 balls against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. Kohli and AB de Villiers added 157 runs for the second wicket as the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) made a mockery of the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) bowing attack. Kohli struck seven boundaries and three sixes to score 75, which came off 51 balls. This was after the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) were asked to bat first by Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in their fourth match of the IPL 2016 tournament.
