“We have £ 20 Lakhs!” IPL News

Virat Kohli was only a teenager before the roaring crowds, the Century celebrations and the legendary Jersey No. 18 who lost his mind in a hotel corridor. Since the IPL is in the 18th year, Kohli looked back on the surreal start of his journey in the league, marked by an unforgettable number: RS 20 Lakhs.

“When the auction took place, we were in Malaysia in Kuala Lumpur and were sold as first-class cricket players who were limited to 20 LAKHS. We went crazy in the corridor-” We have RS 20 Lakhs! “That was the emotion behind it.

Kohli was part of this very first IPL auction in 2008 and was still fresh in front of the captain of India to a U-19 World Cup title. Now he is the most consistent performer of the league and her most constant face.
