The video quickly went viral, with fans across social media sharing and commenting on Kohli’s infectious energy and charisma.
It’s a reminder of why Kohli remains one of the most beloved figures in Indian cricket, not just for his batting prowess but also for his vibrant personality.
Kohli had recently led India to victory in the ICC T20 World Cup, marking the team’s first win in the tournament since 2007. Shortly after, he announced his retirement from T20Is, stepping down from the format at the peak of his career.
After a well-deserved holiday in London, Kohli rejoined the Indian squad for the ODI series against the South Asian opponents.
However, the series didn’t go as planned for the Indian team, as they struggled against Sri Lanka’s spinners, led by the impressive Dunith Wellalage.
Kohli himself had a subdued performance, scoring just 58 runs across three innings. India lost the series 2-0, marking Sri Lanka’s first bilateral ODI series victory over India since 1997.
Despite this setback, Kohli remains a key figure in the Indian lineup and is expected to return for the upcoming Test series against Bangladesh, set to begin on September 19.
