[WATCH] ‘He doesn’t leave me alone’ – Virat Kohli on being annoyed with RCB teammate Swastik Chikara

In his first season in the league, young hitter Swastik Chikara has been having a great time with Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the current IPL 2025. The cricket player has frequently stated that he enjoys being around the renowned batter and views RCB and India international Virat Kohli as his big brother. The latter, nevertheless, seemed a little irritated by Swastik’s persistent following of him in the changing room.

“If you could share one teammate from RCB who would be a great roommate to have or someone that you wouldn’t want to bunk with, who would it be and why, Virat?” He was recently questioned.

“I don’t believe it’s Swastik Chikara.” Since he never leaves me alone, it’s obviously not him,” Virat Kohli responded in a social media video posted by RCB.

The 36-year-old, however, stated that stumper-batter Jitesh Sharma is a comedian with whom he would not mind sharing a room. The Vidarbha cricketer’s street smarts on the pitch appear to have impressed Virat, even if he believes Jitesh hasn’t opened up to him well thus far.

However, Jitesh Sharma is a guy I find hilarious, but he hasn’t been completely honest with me. I can see it in his eyes that he has a sense of mischief, so I would like to see that very fun, raw side of him. As you can see on the pitch, he is incredibly street smart and sees things from several angles. In light of this, I’d like to learn more about the wicketkeeper-batter,” he said.
