Kohli Chases 9,000 IPL Runs Against Opponents He Loves — Gujarat Titans
Virat Kohli needs 92 runs to become the first player in IPL history to reach 9,000 runs. And he’s about to face the team he scores most against.
Kohli averages 87.75 against Gujarat Titans across his IPL career — 351 runs in six innings including a century and three fifties. RCB host GT at Chinnaswamy on Thursday, and conditions at his home ground are the most familiar in cricket.
The milestone is his to take whenever he wants. At 8,908 runs from 273 matches, he’s already in territory no other player has reached. And against this particular opposition, in this particular stadium, the question isn’t whether he’ll get there — it’s how quickly.
