Kohli’s ultimate street cricket team

In a lighthearted chat with Jio Cinema, Kohli revealed his picks for the ultimate street cricket team. With ??the limitation of choosing just fou?r players (including a wicketkeeper, a bowler and a batter), Kohli opted for some familiar names.

• Wicketkeeper-batter: AB de Villiers (former RCB teammate)
• Fast bowler: Jasprit Bumrah (Mumbai Indians)
• All-rounder: Andre Russell (Kolkata Knight Riders)
• Spin bowler: Rashid Khan (Gujarat Titans)

“Along with me, the keeper batter would be, in my opinion, AB de Villiers. There’ll be Jasprit Bumrah. That makes it three. There will be Andre Russell. That makes it four. And there will be Rashid Khan. That makes it five,” Kohli said.

Kohli’s picks highlight his respect for both explosive batting power and skilful bowling in a street cricket setting. The inclusion of his former teammate, de Villiers, adds a nostalgic touch, showcasing the duo’s past success together at RCB.
