Virat Kohli speaks about dedicating his Youth, Prime and Experience into RCB and never expecting to win the IPL title
Kohli speaks about dedicating his prime for RCB
His moist eyes melted hearts just after Josh Hazlewood had bowled his second delivery of the 20th over and when an emotionally choked Virat Kohli kissed the Motera turf, there could have been million teary eyed fans who had waited for this day just like their hero. IPL turned an adult this season and Kohli’s stature just got bigger.
“This win is as much for the fans as it is for the team. It’s been 18 long years. I’ve given this team my youth, prime and experience. I’ve tried to win it every season, gave it everything I have,” Kohli said.
Just after the final, the exhausted Kohli hugged his wife Anushka and one could gauge that the couple were coming to terms that it has finally happened.
“To finally have it is an unbelievable feeling. Never thought this day would come, I was overcome with emotion after the last ball was bowled. Gave each and every ounce of my energy and it’s an amazing feeling,” he added.
After 17 long years of wait, patience, support from fans, and trolls from haters, Royal Challengers Bengaluru overcame all the challenges that were put in front of them this year, finally lifting their maiden Indian Premier League title.
