Fans just can’t seem to get enough of Virat Kohli. The India batter, who is hugely popular among the fans wherever he plays, is adept at mesmerising the crowd with his strokeplay. However, fans also want to see their favourite cricketer bowl. Chants of “Kohli ko bowling do” is not at all uncommon, and the familiar chant returned on Wednesday when India played their T20 World Cup 2024 opener against Ireland.
Virat Kohli’s staple chant returns in New York
“Kohli ko bowling do” (Let Kohli bowl) is a common occurrence. The chant was heard repeatedly during India’s ODI World Cup campaign. The chant returned once again when Royal Challengers Bengaluru played in IPL. Although, both these tournaments were in India. However, that Kohli is equally popular in other parts of the world too was proved in New York.
In a video that has gone viral since it surfaced online, Chants of “Kohli ko bowling do” echoed around the Nassau County Cricket Stadium when India were fielding.
