During the just concluded Champions Trophy title triumph, Virat Kohli played for India.

He scored 218 runs in five innings, including a half-century and a century each, during his respectable batting streak. At the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday, March 9, India won the arduous match by a four-wicket margin, despite his lack of success in the 50-over event final.

Regarding Kohli’s activities in cricket, he will play for RCB for the 18th consecutive season in the 2025 Indian Premier League. Along with captain Rajat Patidar and left-arm pacer Yash Dayal, the former captain was one of three players retained by the three-time finalists before to the upcoming edition’s major auction, which took place in Jeddah in November 2024.

The explosive batsman is now at the top of RCB’s IPL run-scoring charts. Additionally, he was the top scorer in the previous round of the lucrative competition. The franchise would be counting on him to take center stage and turn things around as they prepare for an exciting few months ahead.
