IPL 2020: Kohli, De Villiers Makes Record In Running Between Wickets

With AB De Villiers and Virat Kohli on crease, the showering of runs is not a surprise. It is only nonplussing when the duo is on the crease but there is no hailing of boundaries and sixes. However, the ace-duo had another mindset in the third encounter of the IPL 2020. A mindset that created a record as well. Both the players frustrated Sunrisers Hyderabad by putting pressure on its fielders, with their running between the wickets. The 'hare running' by De Villiers and Kohli not only kept the scoreboard ticking but also made a record of completing two runs in just 5.80 seconds. They continuously stole runs and a boundary came only after 27 odd deliveries were chipped off the bats. This, complemented by 'the De Villiers' show' in last overs, took Royal Challengers Bengaluru to a decent total of 163. Chasing the target, Sunrisers lost by 10 runs.
