Virat Kohli, known for his successful slog sweep in IPL 2024, encountered a setback as he fell victim to the same shot against Rajasthan Royals in the Eliminator. Kohli's innings of 33 runs off 24 balls was cut short by Yuzvendra Chahal's clever bowling in the eighth over, resulting in a catch by substitute fielder Donovan Ferreira. Former England batsman Kevin Pietersen suggested that Kohli should persist with the slog-sweep shot, emphasizing its role in boosting his strike rate.
