Virat Kohli Returns to Ranji Trophy After 12 Years, Fans Erupt in Support at Arun Jaitley Stadium

Virat Kohli’s Triumphant Return to Ranji Trophy Ignites Fan Frenzy

All roads in Delhi led to the Arun Jaitley Stadium for two exhilarating days as cricketing legend Virat Kohli made his long-awaited return to the Ranji Trophy after 12 years, representing Delhi. The atmosphere was electric as over 15,000 fans filled the stands, chanting his name and celebrating the iconic player’s comeback.

Unwavering Support from Fans

The excitement surrounding Kohli’s return was palpable, with fans braving the crowds in anticipation of witnessing their hero’s batting. Many had gathered to cheer him on after Delhi bowled out Railways on Day 1, eagerly waiting for Kohli to take the crease.

Former Pakistan player Basit Ali expressed admiration for Kohli’s immense fan following, stating, “I have seen very few players in my life, maybe just 2-3, who had such fan-following.” He noted that even fans in Pakistan were acknowledging the respect Kohli commands, with comments circulating on social media about the star’s popularity.

A Rollercoaster of Emotions

On the first day, Kohli displayed his unique charisma by interacting with fans while fielding. As the crowd chanted his name for hours, Basit remarked on the incredible bond Kohli shares with his supporters, despite his recent struggles in form. “He is blessed by the almighty with so much respect; I have seen that for the first time in my life for an out-of-form player,” he added.

However, the euphoria took a dip when Kohli was dismissed for just 6 runs on Friday, falling to Railways pacer Himanshu Sangwan. This dismissal extended his poor run of form, raising questions about his performance.
