Virat Kohli and Ishant Sharma Engage in Friendly Banter During RCB vs DC Match
In a rare display of camaraderie on the cricket field, Virat Kohli and Ishant Sharma engaged in two playful exchanges during the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) vs Delhi Capitals (DC) match.
The first incident occurred in the fourth over when Kohli smashed Ishant for a four and a six. However, Ishant had the last laugh by dismissing the former RCB captain. In a playful celebration, Ishant tugged at Kohli’s jersey, who responded with a slight smile and a nod.
Later, Kohli returned the favor when Ishant came out to bat during Delhi’s chase. The former RCB captain teased his longtime friend, showcasing his humorous side.
These two cricketers have a long history of playing together, both for the Indian national team and in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Their rapport extends beyond the sport, and they often engage in friendly banter. However, their respect for each other’s abilities is evident.
In the match, RCB kept their playoff hopes alive thanks to Rajat Patidar’s blistering half-century and a strong bowling performance. The hosts secured a 47-run victory over Delhi Capitals.
