Virat Kohli has once again etched his name into the record books, becoming the first player in Indian Premier League (IPL) history to cross the 800-boundary mark. The historic milestone was achieved during a masterclass 81-run innings for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) against the Gujarat Titans (GT) on Friday, April 24, 2026.

The “300 Sixes” Elite Club
In addition to his prowess with find the rope, Kohli also solidified his status as a power hitter by becoming only the third batter in IPL history to smash 300 sixes.
