On Friday, March 28, Chennai Super Kings are taking on Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the MA Chidamabram Stadium in Chennai in IPL 2025. However, both teams are coming off a win in their respective matches in the cash-rich league, the Ruturaj Gaikwad-led side will be eyeing to continue their domination over the Bengaluru-based franchise, extending to over 17 years at the Chepauk.

For the unversed, CSK won the toss and elected to bat first. Thus inviting the Bengaluru-based franchise to put the score first on the board, MS Dhoni’s lightning-fast stumping once again grabbed the limelight as he rattled the stumps to dismiss the set batter in Phil Salt. After his dismissal, Virat Kohli was joined by Devdutt Padikkal, but departed after playing 14-ball 27-run knock.

The star India and RCB batter also could not capitalise as he departed after scoring 31 runs off 30 balls. Seeing him play yet another slow knock, fans in no time took to social media to troll the batting sensation. While some compared his knock to that of a tortoise, several hit back at the 36-year-old as the widely used term “chokli” once again started to trend on the microblogging website.

Check out how fans reacted to Kohli’s slow knock:

After 17 overs, RCB posted 167 runs at the loss of four wickets with Jitesh Sharma (12 off 4) and skipper Rajat Patidar (46 off 29) in the middle.
