Virat Kohli has begun his IPL 2023 campaign on a scintillating note and the former Indian skipper is in no mood to slow down as he was seen putting in the hard yards inside the gym ahead of Royal Challengers Bangalore’s IPL 2023 match against Rajasthan Royals.
Kohli who is usually seen lifting heavy weights indulged in the same and shared a video of himself sweating it out in the gym while grooving to songs by Eminem.
The 34-year-old has already scored four half-centuries in IPL 2023 and he is currently third on the IPL 2023 orange cap list, behind Faf du Plessis and David Warner with a staggering 279 runs from six outings this campaign.

Kohli was seen captaining Royal Challengers Bangalore after a long time, infact he stepped on the cricket field as a captain after 556 days as Faf du Plessis’ injury meant he didn’t field during RCB’s win over Punjab Kings.
Du Plessis injured his ribs in the previous game and thus Virat replaced him as stand-in captain while the Proteas batter was subbed out after the first innings.
Both Kohli and Du Plessis scored fifties as they helped RCB score 174/4 in 20 overs against Punjab, before restricting Sam Curran’s side to 150 runs.
