In the caption of the video, the video reads, “Cross the culture of sports! Indian football legend Sunil Chhetri stopped by Chinnaswamy to observe RCB practice and spend time with Virat Kohli and the boys.” During his visit, he also interacted with the RCB players, coach Sanjay Bangar, and Mumbai Indians’ Ishan Kishan. Virat Kohli, the former Indian captain, shares a great bond with Chhetri. During his conversation with Virat, Chhetri revealed that he finds him humorous.
When asked why RCB is such a special team for him, he replied, “Because I’m a BFC, I’m a Bangalore boy. Since I joined BFC, I have supported Bangalore. There’s an added motivation from Virat. It’s my city; it’s our team. I’ve kept RCB for years.
