Virat Kohli is all set to represent Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in their IPL 2025 clash against Delhi Capitals (DC) on Thursday, April 10. It was against the same team that he won his first-ever 'Player of the Match' (POTM) award in the IPL.

In an interaction with Jatin Sapru on JioHotstar, Kohli reacted to his interview with commentator Harsha Bhogle after receiving his first POTM award. He had scored 56 runs off 38 balls, hitting eight fours and two sixes against Delhi Daredevils in the 2011 season as RCB won that game by three wickets.

During the interview, Virat Kohli had said -

"To be honest I did not plan to bat like that when I went in but I started hitting the ball well and I took charge from Chris (Chris Gayle). That was the plan in the middle that he could play himself in and I would go for my shots because I was hitting it well."

Looking back at his answer, where he had mentioned Chris Gayle playing himself in, Kohli had a hard laugh.

"Chris could play himself in, waah. Galat fahmi dekh lo (Chris could play himself in, wow. Look at the misunderstanding)," he said with while laughing hard.
