Virat Kohli reveals that he was going to do KL Rahul’s ‘this is my ground’ celebration
Following the game, Kohli went to make fun of KL Rahul. In a rematch between the two teams at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, he imitated the Delhi Capitals batter's "This is my ground"/Kantara celebration after his team won.
A dialogue between the two at that time was made public a day later. The Delhi Capitals hitter, who was alongside Karun Nair, yelled, "Achha hua out ho gaya (It's good you got out)," as Kohli approached KL Rahul and that celebration.
"You know what I thought, I'll finish the match, do this, and then I'll come to you and hug you," replies Kohli.
