Royal Challengers Bangalore (RBC) star player Virat Kohli stated on Wednesday that he has sold most of the cars he has purchased over the years, describing them as “impulsive purchases.”
The Indian cricketer stated on RCB’s YouTube channel during a recent photoshoot, “Most of the cars I used to own were impulsive purchases, and I ended up hardly driving or traveling in them. Beyond a certain point, I was like, ‘This is pointless,’ so I ended up selling most of them, and now we only use what we absolutely need, it’s about being practical.

In the same interview, he disclosed his current music playlist. “Surprisingly, I have recently downloaded Arijit Singh’s MTV Unplugged playlist. He did an MTV unplugged segment with some of his best songs, and it was a soft-rock, very chill version. I loved those versions,” Virat Kohli said in a video posted to Royal Challengers Bangalore’s social media handles.
He also named two batsmen whom he considers to be the “Greatest of All Time,” stating that they entirely altered the dynamics of cricket. I have always considered Sachin Tendulkar and Sir Viv Richards to be the two best cricket players of all time. Sachin is my idol. These two have revolutionized batting in their generation and altered the game’s entire dynamic.
When asked what he would say if he shared a table with retired tennis legend Roger Federer and footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, Virat responded that he would simply listen to them both speak.
Virat stated, “I would remain silent and listen to both of them, as I would not have much to add to the conversation. It would be all about soaking everything in, listening to two of the greatest athletes in sports history.”
Virat recalled how much he enjoyed playing with trump cards with his pals as a child and stated that it was one of his favorite games.

“We used to hunt for those cards. Lex Luger (former WWE wrestler) was ranked number one, and Giant Gonsalvez (former WWE wrestler) was ranked second. It was fun playing with those cards. I also had posters of sportspeople, particularly cricketers,” said Virat.
On April 2, 2023, RCB will open their Indian Premier League (IPL) campaign against Mumbai Indians (MI) at their home venue, M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
