Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) opener Virat Kohli was seen refining his shots during a net session ahead of the most important fixture of the side against SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) in IPL 2024.
Pat Cummins-led SRH will take on RCB at the latter's home venue of M Chinaswammy Stadium. While SRH is in the fifth spot with three wins and two losses, RCB is desperately searching for wins and is at the bottom with a win and five losses.
The RCB franchise took to their offical Instagram handle and posted a video of the 35-year-old player with a caption: "Pretty simple 'Gonna Fly Now' from Rocky".
