After RCB’s 18-run triumph over LSG in an IPL 2022 match, Virat Kohli utilises WWE legend The Undertaker’s iconic allusion

Virat Kohli is a huge WWE fan and often makes references about the pro wrestling company. During the India vs South Africa Test series, Kohli famously used WWE superstar The Rock’s epic catchphrase ‘Finally, The Rock has come back’ when he saw Jasprit Bumrah return to the field after going off injured.

Social media captures dressing room scenes between Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis. Under the pump again and you come back again. We are like The Undertaker, says Kohli.

The video shows him laughing as teammate Mohammed Siraj attempts to sing the Indian Premier League anthem. In the seven matches played so far, Kohli has scored 119 runs with a best of 48 against Mumbai Indians.

DK has amassed 210 runs from seven games at a jaw-dropping average of 210. The only time he was dismissed was for 34 against Chennai Super Kings.

Gambhir acknowledges that his “sole regret in seven years of captaincy” is Suryakumar Yadav: “KKR failed to recognise his potential.”

Throughout his incredible career with the Mumbai Indians since 2018, Suryakumar Yadav has become a household name. He has established himself as a vital member of the batting lineup and is seen as the team’s future leader. He was able to establish himself in the Indian white-ball team and get to the top of the IC batting rankings in the format because to his valiant efforts at MI. But before he was let away, Suryakumar was a member of the Kolkata Knight Riders lineup from 2014 to 2017. When former captain Gautam Gambhir reflects on the two IPL titles won by KKR during that time, he named the star player from India his greatest regret.

KKR featured Suryakumar Yadav from 2014 to 2017.

In 2012, Suryakumar began his IPL career with the Mumbai Indians, appearing in just one match before being cut loose the following year. He was signed by KKR in 2014, and he won the championship in his first campaign there. The right-handed batter scored 608 runs in 54 games during his four-year tenure with the team, although the majority of those runs were scored as a lower middle order hitter.

In an interview with Sportskeeda on Monday, Gambhir said that his biggest regret as KKR captain is that he failed to recognise Suryakumar’s ability or his ideal batting position in the lineup.

Finding and showcasing the greatest potential is the responsibility of a leader. If there’s one thing I regret from my seven years as captain, it’s that neither I nor the squad were able to fully utilise Suryakumar Yadav. And combinations were the key to the cause. At No. 3, you may only play one person. As a leader, you also need to consider the other ten players in the starting lineup. Although he was just as excellent at No. 7, he would have been far more effective at No. 3, he said.

Gambhir went on to praise Suruyakumar for being a team player, citing the reason behind his appointment as the team’s vice-captain in 2015.

He was a team player as well. A good player may be anyone, but becoming a team player takes skill. Playing him at No. 6 or 7 or benching him, he was constantly grinning and eager to contribute to the squad. He went on, “That’s why we named him vice captain.”
