#PlayBold #ನಮ್ಮRCB #IPL2023

You bring 1 social media, trophy, see RCB.

Really, I'm very happy that IPL has completely opened up.

Recently on TV, everybody saw you got 2 ducks.

I think I've got the back of my seat back.

a daisy boy massage chair You are fascinated by throne

See, Virat, everybody calls you king They wake up in the morning, they say king How does it feel to you?

Because I saw 1 video of yours with madam.

Somebody said king is back and you smiled.

I mean, I know they're talking out of perfection.

Otherwise we have 15 years collective experience how to be sad, this that.

You're a poet and you don't even know it.

Now when I entered, I feel like I did not even see what the room looks like.

I mean when I landed also, you know you can...

I'm in a different space now, so I felt the excitement of people when they saw me at the airport So you can sense that it's

building up They must have been screaming, Hey Koili, how are you?

No, no, generally, Namaskara, they would have at least done that.

You realize you're the most retained player in RCB?

As a Star cricketer and a star content creator.

Yeah, I'm saying, see, because I was actually thinking this year, our pitch to the fans should be, we are a content team who also plays cricket.

See, we are not competing with cricket teams anymore.

See, please I request you to please request them to give us a trophy.

You bring 1 social media trophy, see our CV.

Our interview, how many million views it got.

I only made it interesting, you did nothing.

Would you like to leave this cricket and join the content team?

Recently, I saw an interview of Smriti Mandana.

She said, I want to achieve great things.

Like how Virat has achieved for the franchise.

So, she's in the right direction I'm thinking.

A lot of people take it as some fun and games and this team doesn't win.

They complain when there are so much expectations.

Otherwise why would we have so many fans if we were some useless team?

Someone told me, You went to talk to the women's team You did 2-3 videos Which videos?

Whatever, some interview this that you did Now I want you to put your hand on your heart Please put it Are you trying to take a Mr.

No no, I like challenges in life I don't want your

job We are going to play a little game now.

Actually, I watched the last innings you played against Australia.

Watched on fast forward then it felt fast.

Give me also some words, even I'll write a poetry and you can give me any words.

You write on downfall, come back and constipation.

Guys, this is Virat Koylo writing a poetry for you.

My brain is constipated listening to this word only.

It's very difficult, Virat, what to tell you You'll know the most thing I know It just keeps piling up Okay

So guys my poetry is ready And Virat what about you?

No let me read first I don't want the standard to then like suddenly go very high and then you know, you feel bad.

Yeah, I don't want to finish this segment with a

I am scared that I will set the benchmark so high you might just, you know, you don't want that.

The words you had given me was downfall, comeback and constipation.

Fulfill your desire, ignite the fire, back through the tough times.

Life can put you in a pickle, laugh through like it's a pickle.

Whether you get a 100 or a duck, life goes on, Don't get stuck.

On that note friends, we are going to say, Peace, Thank you very much for watching.

And Virat, you want to say any words before the tournament starts?

A lot of excitement, a lot of enthusiasm.

And yeah, just be able to spend some time with them, them being around the team.

I'm not annoyed anymore so much with him because I'm in a different place in life.

Speaker 4: See, Virat, I said this once. Set expectations. Keep it low. If we win, we win. Otherwise we have 15 years collective experience how to be sad, this that.

Speaker 5: I'll give you 1 advice. Never voice your expectations. Have them but keep them inside. Never say it. Once you say it, it becomes a demand.

Correct.
