Virat Kohli hit a 45-ball 50 in an IPL 2022 match against the Gujarat Titans at the Brabourne Stadium on Saturday. It was his 43rd IPL fifty.

Kohli reached his fifty with a single off Mohammad Shami in the 13th over.

Kohli was severe on Shami and Alzzari Joseph, punishing their full balls in the PowerPlay. A whip through mid-wicket and a sweetly timed drive off Joseph in the fifth over stood out.

He was eventually clean bowled by Shami for 58.
