NEW DELHI: In a viral video posted on Fancode's X handle, fans expressed excitement over the possibility of
Rohit Sharma
joining
Royal Challengers Bengaluru
(RCB) to team up with
Virat Kohli
.
During the "Sticky Wicket" segment, supporters eagerly discussed the potential partnership.
One enthusiast remarked, "Obviously, I would take Rohit Sharma with open arms because Virat Kohli is actually playing under him anyways." Another fan chimed in, "With Kohli, one hundred percent (I would take Rohit), why not?! It's Virat and Rohit.
Who wouldn't want that. So it's a yes."
Donning an RCB jersey, another supporter emphasized, "Anybody would want Rohit Sharma in the team. The experience he brings and the firepower he brings in the powerplay (is extraordinary)."
With the IPL set for another mega auction later this year, star players are expected to switch teams. Having led MI to five IPL trophies, Rohit Sharma lost his captaincy to
