Kohli, former India, and Royal Challengers captain who was advised by former team India coach Ravi Shastri to take a break from IPL to revitalize his batting, gave glimpses of a welcome return to form as he struck a fine half-century.

However, fine rearguard innings by Rahul Tewatia and David Miller, who shared an unbeaten 79-run partnership for the fifth wicket, helped GT beat RCB by six wickets in the IPL match.

Brief scores: Royal Challengers Bangalore 170/6 in 20 overs (Virat Kohli 58, Rajat Patidar 52, Glenn Maxwell 33; Pradeep Sangwan 2/19, Rashid Khan 1/29) against Gujarat Titans.
