Virat Kohli and the Royal Challengers Bangalore have recently delighted fans across the globe by securing their maiden IPL title. After an 18-year-long wait, RCB has finally lifted the IPL trophy.

Sharing his heartfelt emotions on social media, Kohli wrote: 'This team made the dream possible, a season I’ll never ever forget. We’ve thoroughly enjoyed the ride over the last 2.5 months.'

The RCB legend also dedicated the trophy to loyal RCB fans who were standing through the franchise in every thick and thin.

However, the celebrations took a tragic turn as 11 people lost their lives and over 30 were left injured in a stampede during the trophy parade outside the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on June 4.

FIRs have been filed against the RCB management, event organisers and the Karnataka State Cricket Association in the matter.
