Tim David lit up the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium with a jaw-dropping display of power-hitting as Royal Challengers Bengaluru piled on a massive total against Chennai Super Kings. Walking in with intent, the Australian finisher wasted no time in taking control, smashing bowlers to all parts of the ground. In a matter of a few deliveries, David raced past the 50-run mark, completely shifting the momentum in RCB’s favour and leaving the CSK bowlers with no answers.
The Bengaluru crowd witnessed a proper T20 masterclass as David’s clean striking and brute force powered RCB past the 250-run mark — a total that immediately looked out of reach for Chennai. His innings was not just about big shots, but the timing and confidence with which he executed them. Every connection off his bat seemed destined for the stands, and the bowlers were reduced to mere spectators.
One particular six stood out — a monstrous hit that had the entire stadium in disbelief. The ball soared so high and so far that it left fans wondering whether it had actually cleared the stadium. It wasn’t just the crowd that was stunned; even seasoned campaigners couldn’t believe what they had just witnessed.

Among those left in awe was Virat Kohli. The former RCB captain’s reaction quickly went viral on social media. Kohli, who was inside the dressing room, couldn’t contain his excitement as he jumped up and rushed out to track the ball’s trajectory. His expression said it all — pure amazement and joy. It was a rare moment where even a player of Kohli’s stature looked like a fan, soaking in the brilliance unfolding in front of him.
David’s knock ultimately proved to be the defining factor in the game. The sheer scale of the total meant that Chennai Super Kings were always under pressure, and despite their efforts, the chase became increasingly difficult as the innings progressed.
For RCB, this innings from Tim David could well be a turning point in their campaign. For the fans, it was a night to remember — a night where power met precision, and where one innings left even the great Virat Kohli absolutely stunned.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru will play their next game against Rajasthan Royals at ACA Stadium in Guwahati on April 10.
