[In Picture] Virat Kohli poses with two kids in RCB & CSK jerseys ahead of 2024 T20 World Cup Super 8s

Team India batter Virat Kohli was recently spotted posing with two kids wearing Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) jerseys in Barbados. The Indian contingent landed in the Caribbean Islands shortly after completing their T20 World Cup 2024 group fixtures in the USA.

The Indian Premier League (IPL) is arguably the biggest franchise tournament in the world. Thus, it attracts fans from all across the globe and they often come to the Indian superstars wearing IPL jerseys.

Kohli recently met two such fans in Barbados, who were seen donning RCB and CSK jerseys. He posed with them for a picture at the team hotel.

It is worth noting that Virat Kohli represents the Royal Challengers in the IPL. RCB and CSK are among the most famous teams in the cash-rich league and have massive fan bases.

The two teams also enjoy a fierce rivalry, popularly known as El Classico. They have met each other 33 times in the tournament's history, with CSK winning 21 times. Bengaluru have 11 victories under their belt, while one match yielded no result.

Moreover, the Super Kings have five titles to their name while the Royal Challengers are yet to win a trophy despite making it to the finals several times.


How has Virat Kohli fared in the T20 World Cup 2024?

The former Indian skipper landed in the USA on the back of a spectacular IPL 2024 campaign for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru. He finished as the highest scorer with 741 runs in 15 games at an average of 61.75 and a strike rate of almost 155.

However, Virat Kohli lost the touch upon landing in the United States. He has aggregated only five runs in three games so far. The right-handed batter bagged a golden duck during their clash against co-hosts USA.

He will be desperate to bounce back when the Men in Blue begin their Super 8 campaign against Afghanistan on June 20 in Barbados.
