IPL 2023: RCB’s Virat Kohli says he ended up selling most of his impulsively bought cars
Royal Challengers Bangalore superstar Virat Kohli acknowledged that most of the cars he has bought over the years have been impulsive buys that he later ended up selling.
Speaking on RCB’s YouTube channel during a recent photoshoot, Kohli said, “Most of the cars I used to own were impulsive buys, I ended up hardly driving or travelling in them as well. Beyond a point, I was like this is pointless, so I ended up selling most of them and now we only use what we absolutely need to.
“I think it is also part of growing up and being more aware and mature about things as well. You don’t feel like owning ‘toys’ as such, it is about being practical,” he added.
Kohli has been one of the stalwarts of the franchise. He has played many match-winning knocks for them. However, his form dipped last season and could only manage 341 runs at a strike rate of 115.99. However, coming into this IPL the batter has been in decent nick in international cricket. “If I am able to get to the level I want to play at and help the team, it will be exciting,” he said.
He further said, “I am just back to playing the way I do. There’s still a lot of room to get to my best which hopefully happens in the IPL if I am able to get to the level I want to play at and help the team and it will be exciting.”
