'If anyone can challenge Virat, it's ... ': Kohli's record called 'stepping stone'

Virat Kohli became the first batter to cross 9,000 IPL runs, further cementing his legacy of consistency and dominance. Irfan Pathan said the milestone is “just a stepping stone” for Kohli. At Arun Jaitley Stadium, Kohli played an unbeaten, match-winning knock. With eight centuries, strong form, and Orange Cap contention, he remains central to RCB’s success this season and their strong playoff push.
