Just with the Indian Premier League 2025 heating up, Virat Kohli added a humorous twist during a recent meet-and-greet event ahead of Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s clash with Chennai Super Kings. In a video posted by RCB, Kohli was asked about his preferred and non-preferred roommates while on tour. He jokingly named young batter Swastik Chikara as someone he wouldn’t want to room with, saying, “He does not leave me alone”. Swastik, 20, gained fame after smashing three consecutive centuries in the 2023 UP T20 League and is now a recognizable face in RCB’s squad, often seen engaging with Kohli both on and off the field.

Kohli expressed interest in sharing a room with wicketkeeper Jitesh Sharma, describing him as funny and full of mischief. He praised Jitesh’s street-smart cricketing skills and said he wanted to get to know him better. Jitesh has scored 121 runs in seven innings for RCB this season.

Currently, Kohli is the third-highest run-scorer in IPL 2025 with 443 runs from 10 innings, averaging 63.28 with six half-centuries and a top score of 73 not out. RCB, with seven wins and three losses, stands second on the points table and is set to host CSK in their next match.
