Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) is an emotion to Virat Kohli. The only player in the history of Indian Premier League (IPL) to stick to a single franchise for 17 years, Kohli’s love for RCB is unmatched. The Bengaluru-based franchise lifted the IPL trophy for the first time in 18 seasons earlier this year, defeating Punjab Kings in the final on June 3.
Kohli’s endearment with RCB was once again caught on camera in Perth just before India’s training session on Thursday. The incident occurred when Kohli was leaving the team hotel and board the bus to Optus Stadium for Training. For the unknown, Kohli, who retired from Tests and T20Is, is returning to the Indian dressing room after seven months.
As the former India captain came out of the hotel, an ardent Kohli and RCB fan called Kohli for an autograph and a photo. “Virat bhai, Virat bhai please. One pic, one autograph on RCB jersey Virat bhai,” was the fan’s humble request to the Indian star. The 36-year-old kept his kit bag in the bus and obliged with the fan’s request, the video of which went viral.
Kohli has been the pillar of RCB in IPL. Starting from the inaugural season in 2008 to 2025, Kohli’s unmatched energy and the passion for the franchise helped RCB grow globally both on and off the field. He even led RCB from 2014 to 2021, with a best finish of runners-up in 2016.
