Virat Kohli was seen mocking KL Rahul with the ‘this is my ground’ celebration after Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) defeated Delhi Capitals (DC) in their recent IPL 2025 match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.
On a challenging surface in Delhi, Royal Challengers Bengaluru were given a target of 163 runs to chase. RCB had a terrible start to the innings, losing Rajat Patidar, Devdutt Padikkal, and Jacob Bethell in 4 overs, leaving them reeling at 26/3.

After that, Virat Kohli and Krunal Pandya worked together to steady the innings. The Delhi Capitals were driven out of the game entirely by the pair's batting masterpiece.
Despite their initial caution, Krunal and Kohli made sure to punish the poor balls. They adopted an attacking style of cricket as the innings went on, smashing the bowlers all over the field.
A 119-run partnership between Virat Kohli and Krunal Pandya virtually guaranteed RCB's victory. Krunal Pandya (73*) remained in the middle until the very end and led RCB to a 6-wicket victory despite Kohli being removed for 51 in the 18th over.
Virat Kohli does the ‘yeh mera ground hai’ celebration in front of KL Rahul to mock him
After the victory, Kohli, who was seated in the dugout, celebrated wildly, but he brought out the true celebration in front of KL Rahul as payback. Following the game, KL Rahul was spotted chatting with Devdutt Padikkal and Karun Nair.
Then, before they both laughed, Kohli approached KL Rahul and imitated his "This is my ground" celebration in Delhi.
Notably, KL Rahul exclaimed, "This is my ground," in an epic celebration after assisting DC in defeating RCB in their earlier IPL match in Bengaluru. He did this by pounding his chest and driving his bat into the ground like a sword.

KL Rahul’s celebration when DC defeated RCB in Bengaluru
Rahul had thumped his chest, saying “this is my ground”, before circling the ground and placing his bat in the middle. This was done when he scored 93* to help Delhi Capitals chase a 164-run target. RCB had gotten rid of the DC top-order for cheap, before Rahul with 93* and Tristan Stubbs with 38* took them over the winning line.
Local boy. Big stage. Statement made.
