Cricket’s biggest star, known as “King Kohli” by his 300 million-plus followers on social media, was there in the infancy of the Indian Premier League in 2008 and had to wait 18 seasons to clinch the title with RCB.
After the six-wicket win over Punjab Kings (PBKS) on Tuesday night to end a dramatic season, Kohli slumped to his knees and cried.
“I have given everything to this franchise for the last 18 years,” the 36-year-old star batter said. “I never thought this moment would come.”

When asked where he rates his first IPL Trophy, having won the ODI World Cup, T20 World Cup and Champions Trophy, Kohli said: “Well, it’s right up there, if I have to be honest. As I said, I’ve given everything that I had for the last 18 years. I’ve stayed loyal to this team, no matter what. I’ve had moments where I thought otherwise, but I stuck to this team. I stood behind them, they stood behind me.”
“And I always dreamt of winning it with them. And this is far more special than winning it with anyone else because my heart is with Bangalore, my soul is with Bangalore. And as I said, this is the team I’m going to play for till the last day that I play the IPL. So this one is absolutely right up there,” he added.
