I’ve Been Approached To Come Into The IPL Auction, Reveals Kohli

Virat Kohli, who stepped down as Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper at the conclusion of the previous season after 8 years in charge, is the only player who has featured for only one team throughout the history of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The former India captain said that he had offers from other teams to enter the auction. Here is Kohli Approached In IPL Auction.

I’ve Been Approached To Come Into The IPL Auction, Reveals Kohli:

Kohli revealed that he has been invited by other teams to participate in the auction and he has been considered them. And he also said that there have been several good players who have won trophies and other honors, but no one could ever be addressed by the same. They prefer you if you are a nice person, and they ignore you if you are a bad guy. And finally, he described ‘that’s the life is all about’.

“I’ve been approached a few times as well – to come into the auction somehow – I have thought about it,” Kohli said. “At the end of the day, a person lives a certain number of years, and then you die and life moves on. There have been many great players who have won trophies and things like that but no one addresses you like that. If you are a good person, people like you and if you are a bad guy, they stay away from you. Eventually, that’s what life is all about”.

Virat Kohli opens up on the loyalty with RCB

“The loyalty with RCB, like how I follow my life, is far greater than five people saying you’ve finally won the IPL with XYZ. You feel good for five minutes and then the sixth minute you could be miserable with some other issue in life. What this franchise has given to me in the first three years, and believed in me, is the most special thing. There were many teams who had the opportunity. They didn’t back me and they didn’t believe in me.”

Furthermore, Kohli stated that it’s a really good opportunity he has been looking for, and he made it absolutely clear with only one condition: he will bat only at No. 3 and the management accepted his condition.  He also stated that he could contribute something exceptional to the side. And had no issues accepting the role.

“I said that’s great, and that’s the opportunity I am looking for. I told them very clearly there’s only one condition that I will bat at No.3 and nowhere else. They said fair enough. I knew I can do something special for the team. I had no problem accepting the responsibility”.

“The first three years in the IPL, I always had the belief that I could do something special. I felt like the composition of the team, while they were amazing players, and rightly so in the right positions, I was not able to play in the position that was my strength”.

“For the first 3 years, it was on and off, a performance here and a performance there. It was not as free-flowing and consistent as I would have liked it to be. I was playing No.3 for India, and I was not getting to do it for RCB in the IPL. It was a bit of a strange situation for me, because I felt like I could replicate my India performances here and maybe better.”
