Chris Gayle predicted that Kohli will play International tournaments.
Chris Gayle was a key player of the RCB and hold some of the finest record in the IPL history that are still intact. Before the RCB vs CSK, he was to give opinion on the Virat Kohli then Chris Gayle said- “Virat Kohli is in good form and can play the international tournaments easily.” Chris Gayle also said that For RCB, the next several days will be disaster for bowlers.
Gayle on Faf and Kohli
Chris Gayle appreciate the teamwork of Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli. He praised the innings performance at RCB vs SRH match where the RCB had to chase the highest ever score in the IPL history. The RCB is also the only team to score in highest runs in run chase.
Chris Gayle-
“We know Faf is class. He’s an excellent captain and an excellent player. He has done it all over international cricket as well, so this is not new to Faf. One thing I can tell you, Virat and Faf are going to feed off each other perfectly. Look at the way they start, they look to drop and run.
“They pick up their ones and their twos and by the third overcomes, they’re ready to take it out. That’s something bowlers and teams got to be aware of because these two, I’ve said this before, you’re guaranteed almost 400 runs.”
Will Kohli join CSK for the IPL 2025?
With constant losses incurred by RCB, everyone is expecting Kohli to join other franchise. It is seen in many occasions that the whole team is carrying on the shoulder of one person.
In the RCB podcast the host asked the same question to Virat Kohli.
The host asked Virat, “Virat I know you love RCB just as much as RCB loves you. Even for a moment, for a second, while playing this IPL have you ever wondered is the grass greener on the other side?”
Virat replied to this question, “To be very honest I have thought about it, yes I won’t shy away from it and I have been approached many times as well to come into the auction somehow, put my name in there and stuff. And then I thought about it I was like at the end of the day everyone has X number of years they live right and then you die and then life moves on. And there would be many great people who want trophies and this blah! blah! blah! but no one addresses you in the room like “Oh he is a champion” OR “He is a World Cup Champion”.
“And it is like if you are good person, people like you and if you are bad guy, they stay away from you and eventually that is what life is all about so far for me. The understanding that the loyalty with RCB is like how I follow my life is far greater for me than the fact yes 5 people in the room would say “Oh finally you have won the IPL with whoever XYZ and yeah you feel good for 5 minutes but then 6th minute you could be miserable with some other issue in life, so it is not the end of the world for me”
He also adds ” What this franchise has given me in terms of the opportunity in the first 3 years and believed in me, that is the special thing because as I said there were many teams who had the opportunity but they did not back me, they did not believed in me so now When I am successful and I should fall to the opinion of people saying “but the IPL”. This was the case with me till the England Tour happened. For 4 years of my life I was doing well every where in the world, the only thing was but “England”. So there is always going to be “buts” you literally can not live your life like that and I just carry on my own thing and I actually honestly do not even bother about a 3rd person beyond myself, Anushka discussing things and just being true to ourselves. And that is it for me, nothing else and no one else’s opinion matters at all.”
Final Verdict
Overall, he deny all the claims to be made that he is going to join any other franchise other than RCB. Despite his excellent effort, Kohli alone cannot bring the trophy to RCB. All the players have to work extremely hard to earn the IPL title.
