RCB defeated the Royals by seven runs. Earlier this season, Kohli was fined 10 per cent of his match fees as he 'admitted to the Level 1 offence under Article 2.2 of the IPL Code of Conduct' after RCB's contest against former four-time champion Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
