![[WATCH] Karun Nair Spectacular Direct Hit Runs Out Rajat Patidar After Mix Up With Virat Kohli in DC vs RCB IPL 2025 Match](https://cricxtasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/ramba.png)
The incident happened on the final ball of the fourth over.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) lost a big wicket in their skipper Rajat Patidar after a mixup with Virat Kohli which led to the former getting runout during the match against the Delhi Capitals (DC) tonight (April 27) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL 2025).
The incident happened on the final ball of the fourth over. Kohli clipped a Mukesh Kumar delivery to midwicket and took off but sent Patidar scrambling back. Kohli took a few steps forward and Patidar was charging down when he was sent back. It was another run-out involving Kohli as Karun Nair made a spectacular direct throw to complete a stunning bit of fielding.
Interestingly, Kohli was involved in a runout of Phil Salt when the teams met last time this season earlier this month. On the other hand, Nair had previously effected another impeccable direct hit this season, of Shubman Gill during the match against Gujarat Titans.
