[Watch] When Virat Kohli described Ravindra Jadeja as the biggest ‘feku’ in the Indian team
While clips from the episode featuring Indian cricketers on Kapil Sharma's show are going viral, snippets from Virat Kohli's appearance on the comedian's show many years ago also keep cropping up on social media platforms. In one of the videos, Kohli is seen describing all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja as the biggest feku (a person who keeps bluffing) in the Indian team.
In the old clip, which keeps popping up on Instagram reels, host Kapil is seen asking Kohli, who is the biggest 'feku' in the Indian team? To this, the former Indian captain replies:
"Ravindra Jadeja (laughs)."
Giving reasons for his answer, he goes on to explain:
"He stays in Jamnagar. You ask him anything about Jamnagar... He says every year two buildings come closer by the size of rice. And when they meet, the world will end. His chats... He also says that there is the photo of a king sitting on a horse with a sword in a hand. According to him, one year the horse's right hand [feet] is up and the other year the left hand [feet] is up. Kiss level ka feku hai."

Jadeja and Kohli were part of the Indian team during the two-match Test series against Bangladesh at home. Kohli scored 99 runs in four innings at an average of 33, with a best of 47. Jadeja hit 94 runs in two innings, with a best of 86 in Chennai. With his left-arm spin, the 35-year-old also picked up nine scalps, averaging 15.44. He picked up three-fers in the second innings of both Tests.
Both Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja retired from T20Is after India's T20 World Cup win
Kohli and Jadeja were part of the Indian team that won the 2024 T20 World Cup held in the West Indies and the United States. Both seasoned cricketers announced their retirement from T20Is after India's triumph in the ICC event.
Kohli had a disappointing T20 World Cup campaign, but reserved his best for the final, top-scoring with 76 off 59 balls against South Africa in Barbados. Jadeja was overshadowed by fellow all-rounder Axar Patel in the tournament. He managed only one wicket and did not get a lot of chances to bat.
Kohli ended his T20I career with 4,188 runs in 125 matches at an average of 48.69 and a strike rate of 137.04, with one hundred and 38 fifties. Speaking of Jadeja, he played 74 T20Is, scoring 515 runs and picking up 54 wickets.
