If there is one thing we all love about Virat Kohli, it is that he wears his heart on his sleeve, without any second thoughts. Be it thumping his chest after a big century, roaring after a crucial wicket or sharing a playful moment with his teammates or rivals, Kohli never holds back his raw emotions

And on Sunday (April 27) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, Kohli gave fans another fun moment to remember. After helping Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) beat Delhi Capitals (DC), Virat Kohli hogged the limelight by playfully teasing KL Rahul by copying his now-famous ‘This is my ground’ celebration.

For those who missed the backstory, on April 10, during the RCB vs. DC match at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, it was Rahul who had unleashed the ‘This is my ground’ gesture after a standout performance. Naturally, it caught fire on social media, with fans across the country talking about it. Fast forward a few weeks, and Kohli, ever the entertainer, decided it was time for a little friendly payback on Rahul’s home turf.

Delhi Capitals scored 162 for 8 in their allotted 20 overs. KL Rahul was Delhi’s top scorer with 41 runs off 30 balls, including three fours. Tristan Stubbs scored 34 runs off 18 balls, with five fours and one six. On the other side of the coin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar was the pick of the bowlers for RCB, as he accounted for 3 dismissals, giving away 33 runs in his quota of 4 overs.
