Kohli had a lacklustre season in the tournament last time around in IPL as he managed to score 341 runs at an underwhelming average of 22.73 and a strike-rate of 115.98. However, the right-handed batter will look to turn things around this time. Kohli has had a decent time in the international arena since last year’s Asia Cup. The senior batter will look to play with responsibility as he holds a key to RCB’s success in the competition.
“I think I’m back to playing the way I do, but there’s a lot of room to get to my best, which hopefully happens during the IPL” – Virat Kohli talks about returning to Bengaluru and Chinnaswamy, on Bold Diaries.#PlayBold #ನಮ್ಮRCB #IPL2023 @imVkohli pic.twitter.com/IJvTf8W1jt
