๐จ Umpire Anil chaudhary gave a befitting reply to Ranjit bajaj ๐
"You're either naive or dumb if you think Virat Kohli is praised as fittest athlete. He's praised for staying fit for more than 12 years. I remember in 2022, after the India vs Pak game where he scored his 82*, everyone went out for a dinner. All the players, staff and umpires ordered delicious food but on the biggest day of his career, that man ordered broccoli. This is who Kohli is. He doesn't know what food tastes like 6-7 days a week. All your 15 yo kids care about fitness only because he made it relevant."
Anil sir owned that egoistic guy completely ๐
๐จ Venkatesh Iyer on Virat Kohli's mindset in the IPL Final ๐จ
๐ฃ๏ธ When we walked out to chase in the IPL final, Virat Kohli told me, We'll kill the game in the powerplay itself. I'll stay till the end, and you just play your natural game.
While the other RCB batters played aggressively against the GT bowlers, Virat adapted his batting completely according to the situation. His mind was crystal clear about how and by when the chase needed to be finished.
In the end, he sealed the victory with a six โ and that's exactly why he's called the Chase Master๐
.@benstokes38, Iโve always admired the way you brought energy into the game. Your positivity, your fearless intent, and the way you shaped moments under pressure stood out every time you walked in. As an all-rounder, youโve been one of Englandโs finest, and as a captain, your bold tactics and instinctive reading of the game added a new edge to your side.
Wishing you the very best for what comes next. Though knowing you, staying away from the middle might be the hardest part. Good luck for your next innings!
๐จEVEN BEFORE TAKING RETIREMENT, I WAS TALKING TO VIRAT KOHLI๐จ
Kane Williamson :-โMe and Virat Kohli have shared a bond since our U-19 days. Through highs, lows, pressure, and tough times, weโve always stood by each other. Before taking a big step like retirement, I wanted to have an honest conversation with him. He understands the game, the pressure, and the emotions better than most. Some friendships in cricket are built on respect, trust, and years of battles together and ours is one of them.โ
๐จ WHAT A SCENE...!!!
- Right after the news of Ben Stokes's retirement appeared on the big screen in the stadium, he took a wicket on the very next ball.๐ฅ
