While the Royal Challengers Bangalore decimated Kings XI Punjab by 10 wickets in Indore on Monday, 14 May, actress and RCB skipper Virat Kohli’s wife Anushka Sharma showed her support for the Bangalore team through a series of Instagram stories.

It was a fantastic day for Kohli’s RCB as the victory kept their play-off hopes alive, and Anushka couldn’t hold back her emotions while sitting in a make-up room.

Here’s a look at Anushka Sharma’s flurry of emotions through the match.

Ecstatic after RCB registered their fifth win in 12 matches, Captain Kohli responded to Anushka’s tweet saying, “Yes my love. Indeed we arrived today.”

In the match, Umesh Yadav's short-pitched deliveries got the big wickets of Lokesh Rahul (21) and Chris Gayle (14) as Punjab was bowled out for 88 in 15.1 overs after Bangalore won the toss and opted to field.

Captain Virat Kohli (48 not out) and Parthiv Patel (40 not out) then piloted Bangalore to 92 without loss in just 8.1 overs as Punjab missed its injured mystery spinner Mujeeb Ur Rahman.Bangalore remained at seventh in the standings but with a vastly improved net run-rate which could prove crucial for play-offs qualification.

Punjab slipped to fifth, and it has two tough away matches remaining against Mumbai and Chennai Super Kings.
