Virat Kohli has always been known to have a fiery personality and he never shies away from giving it back to the opposition. As Royal Challengers Bangalore got their third consecutive win in the IPL 2021, Kohli took a dig at the Punjab Kings, whom his team defeated in a close game in Sharjah on Sunday, October 3.

The dig which Kohli took was a reference to an incident that happened in the first leg of matches in India. After winning in a game in Ahmedabad against RCB, Punjab Kings’ social media team had uploaded a picture of the dugout of RCB, which wasn’t in the happiest mood at the time.

They eventually deleted the post.

Kohli was speaking to someone in the background and saying it was good to see the letter ‘Q’ (which stands for qualified to the playoffs) on the side of their name. While walking outside the dressing room, he said, “Bahut Shanti hai aaj’ which means “It’s very peaceful today”.

He was grinning slightly as he walked away. The person who was shooting the footage, with whom Kohli was heard speaking, also laughed a bit. The footage was seen in the RCB’s matchday video on their social media handles.
