However, his knock came under fire owing to poor strike rate (118.6).

Kohli took 37 balls to complete his half-century. He was eventually dismissed on 51 off 43 balls.

Amid criticism, Kohli etched his name in history after scoring yet another half-century.

Kohli has become the first batter to score 400 or more runs in 10 IPL seasons.
