Training Ahead of the New Season
In the reel, Kohli is seen facing deliveries during a net session, suggesting preparations for the upcoming IPL campaign. The experienced batter continues to be a key player for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), one of the founding franchises of the IPL.
The 2026 season of the tournament is scheduled to begin on March 28. According to preliminary schedules, RCB is expected to begin its campaign against Chennai Super Kings.
Social Media Activity Draws Attention

Key Role for RCB
Kohli has been associated with RCB since the league’s inaugural season and remains one of the team’s most experienced players. The franchise secured its first IPL title last season, marking a significant milestone after several years in the competition.
As the start of IPL 2026 approaches, teams have begun their training sessions and preparations, with players returning to their franchises ahead of the opening fixtures.
