IPL 2023: On Tuesday, April 4, the Royal Challengers Bangalore shared a new RCB Insider video on their official social media handle. In the video, former RCB captain Virat Kohli appeared in a whole new avatar. Kohli sat down with comedian Danish Sait’s Mr. Nags character and explored poetry. Sait provided Kohli with four specific words – Trip, Tide, Man, and 49 – and requested him to compose a few lines of poetry. Kohli requested that the cameras be turned off while he worked on it, and the outcome was magical, reflecting his personal journey in recent years.

In a video shared by the franchise on Tuesday, RCB star Virat Kohli wrote a touching poem spontaneously on the ‘RCB Insider.’
Virat Kohli wrote, “Fulfill your desire, ignite the fire. Bat through the tough times, sometimes its 263 sometimes 49. Life can put you in a pickle, laugh through like its a tickle. Whether you get a hundred or a duck, life goes on don’t get stuck. There is no map ride the tide, you are your own guide.”

In the video, Kohli opened up about being under a lot of stress in the last few seasons. He said that he didn’t even enjoy the beauty of the hotel he was staying in. Kohli admitted that there were many challenges to playing for a franchise with such a large fan base, where people expect him to perform on a daily basis.
The batter stated that he has entered the competition in a good mental state and had begun to appreciate the beauty around him. Kohli began his IPL 2023 campaign with a thrilling 82* against Mumbai Indians at the Chinnaswamu Stadium in Bengaluru on Sunday, 2 April. Kohli and RCB have travelled to Kolkata for their next match and will take on KKR on 6 April.
The interview between Kohli and Mr. Nags from IPL 2022 became an instant hit. Back then former RCB skipper opened up about scoring three first-ball ducks. Now, Virat and Mr. Nags engaged in a lighthearted discussion away from the gravity of cricket. And whenever these two are together in a single frame, entertainment is assured.
