Indian cricket team star batsman Virat Kohli and explosive all-rounder Glenn Maxwell of Australia cricket team shared a friendly bond both on and off the field. Maxwell joined the Royal Challengers Bangalore before the IPL 2021, and both of these amazing players have shared some excellent partnerships on the field for their team. In a recent interaction, Maxwell disclosed how he was once compared to Kohli, which according to him is one of the biggest compliments he has ever received. The video was shared by RCB on their official Twitter account.
Maxwell recalled, "I got compared to Virat Kohli once; that was a serious compliment." "It was completely unnecessary and definitely not even true, but I had a couple of good knocks and got compared to Virat, and that was quite nice." During this same interaction, Maxwell also revealed his craziest fan interaction as he added, "Anytime you are going through an airport in India, it's pretty crazy." Yesterday, in the car, there were people chasing me and Faf down the road and banging on the windows; that was interesting.
Three star players of RCB—Kohli, du Plessis, and Maxwell—have all scored half centuries during the IPL 2023 match against Lucknow Super Giants. However, Nicholas Pooran smashed the fastest fifty of the IPL season in 15 balls as LSG pulled off a stunning chase of 213.
RCB will now take on the Delhi Capitals in their next game on Saturday, April 15.
