Meanwhile, Kohli also shared a fun pic with Glenn Maxwell and Du Plessis after MI's victory.



Also, RCB thanked their former player Tim David, who is now part of Mumbai Indians, for hitting 34 runs off just 11 balls with the help of two boundaries and four sixes to take the game out of DC's grasp.



Notably, Gujarat Titans, Rajasthan Royals and Lucknow Super Giants have already qualified for IPL 2022 playoffs and Royal Challengers Bangalore became the fourth team and last team to do so.


Well-paced knocks by Mumbai Indians batters helped them in finishing their IPL 2022 campaign on a high as they defeated Delhi Capitals by 5 wickets.


The equation was simple for the Challengers. And they could sail through as Rohit Sharma-led side crushed the hopes of Delhi Capitals in the last league game for the two sides.
