Virat Kohli has consistently delivered match-winning performances against SRH. Known for his ability to anchor innings while accelerating when needed, Kohli thrives in high-pressure situations. 

He countered SRH’s potent bowling attack with masterful stroke play, finding gaps with precision and punishing loose deliveries. His ability to rotate the strike and finish strong has often left SRH struggling to regain momentum.

2. David Warner (SRH)

David Warner, one of the most destructive openers in IPL history, has been a constant thorn in RCB’s side. Renowned for his aggressive intent from the outset, Warner’s 92 off 50 balls in 2019 at Hyderabad was a classic display of dominance. 

Opening the innings, Warner attacked RCB’s pacers with fearless stroke play, dismantling their plans with an array of boundaries. His ability to mix power-hitting with clever placement made it nearly impossible for RCB to stem the flow of runs. 

3. Yuzvendra Chahal (RCB)

Opening the innings, Gayle unleashed a relentless assault on SRH’s bowlers, smashing 13 towering sixes and 7 fours. His ability to clear the boundary effortlessly demoralized SRH’s attack and set a platform for RCB’s massive total.
