Virat Kohli minced no words against the broadcasters for discussing his personal life over cricket. Besides cricket, Virat Kohli has been the biggest sporting brand globally, thanks to his game and the personality the 36-year-old possess. As a result, the former India captain has always been the hot favourite product to market for the broadcasters.
Speaking at the Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s (RCB) Innovation Lab Indian Sports Summit on Saturday, Virat Kohli opined that the broadcasters need to highlight the stories about the athletes rather than discussing about what he ate for lunch or his favourite food joint in Delhi.
“A broadcast show needs to talk about the game and not what I ate yesterday for lunch or my favourite chole-bhature place in Delhi,” Virat Kohli said in a conversation with former England women international Isa Guha. “You can’t have that in cricket matches. Rather, you could talk about what an athlete is going through.”
