Maxwell hit the KKR bowlers all over the park, his innings of 78 consisted of nine fours and three sixes. In RCB’s previous match, Maxwell played an important knock of 59 against Sunrisers Hyderabad. This is just the second time since 2014 that Maxwell has registered back-to-back fifty-plus scores in the IPL and the importance of the knock could be seen not only on the face of Maxwell but also of his skipper Virat Kohli.Kohli, who was dismissed for just five runs, watched from the dugout as Maxwell brought out his array of shots. The moment Maxwell took a single to reach his half-century, the camera panned to Kohli, who came into the frame and clapped whole-heartedly celebrating Maxwell’s fifty. Just as the camera decided to pan out, Kohli’s reaction could be seen getting more intense as he kept clapping enthusiastically in the company of his teammates and support staff.During RCB’s first game of the season, Kohli had a similar reaction to one of Maxwell’s colossal sixes. The Australian batsman, playing his first match for RCB, hit a humongous 100-meter six off the bowling of Krunal Pandya. As the ball landed long back into the empty stands, Kohli, who was at the non-striker’s end appeared in awe of the monstrous hit. He looked astonished as the ball went out of the ground.Everyone To RCB After Their 3 Consecutive Wins 👇 #RCBvKKR #RCB #ViratKohli #KKRvsRCB @jerryastic pic.twitter.com/n09CtuEhBk
