Rinku Singh Breaks Virat Kohli’s Bat, Faces Star’s Wrath
Virat Kohli’s Bat-Breaking Woes Continue as Rinku Singh Shatters Gift
Ahead of the highly anticipated Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 clash between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), KKR batter Rinku Singh delivered some unfortunate news to RCB superstar Virat Kohli. Singh revealed that he had broken the bat gifted to him by Kohli after their previous encounter.
During a pre-match meeting, Singh approached Kohli and sheepishly admitted, “Virat bhai, I broke the bat you gave me.” Kohli, known for his generosity, initially inquired about the circumstances surrounding the breakage. Singh explained that he had broken the bat while facing a spinner.
Kohli, however, was not amused by Singh’s explanation. “You broke it against a spinner? Where did you break it from?” he asked. Singh replied that he had broken it from the middle. Kohli’s frustration was evident as he exclaimed, “What should I do then?”
Singh attempted to lighten the mood by informing Kohli that he was merely providing an update. However, Kohli remained unmoved. “No problem. Good that you told me. But I don’t need information,” he said.
Despite Kohli’s reluctance to provide another bat, Singh persisted. He began knocking the ball on two of Kohli’s bats, prompting Kohli to remark, “This bat is no good.” Singh then asked if Kohli would send him a new one.
Kohli, still smarting from the broken bat incident, replied, “To whom am I sending? You took a bat from me previously. Now you want a second bat in the second game? Because of you, I face consequences later.”
Singh, sensing Kohli’s annoyance, quickly returned the bats to him. Kohli, with a hint of resignation, said, “I swear on you, don’t break the bat again. I can show you the broken bat.”
While Kohli refused to give Singh a new bat in the video, it remains to be seen if he will change his mind after the match between the two teams on Sunday.
