India’s home season kicked off with a dominant 2-0 sweep over Bangladesh. With eight Tests left in their World Test Championship run, including a three-match series against New Zealand and an eagerly awaited tour of Australia, the stage is set for a thrilling season.
This time, the Border-Gavaskar Trophy features five Tests, breaking away from the traditional four-match format, as India targets a third consecutive series win on Australian soil. The excitement is palpable among fans.
In a viral video, Virat Kohli, back in India ahead of the New Zealand series, had an amusing airport encounter that captured the fan frenzy.
As he made his way to his car, a fan shouted, “BGT me aag lagaani hai!” (Set the BGT on fire!). A surprised Kohli turned, asking, “Kisme?” (In what?), before the fan clarified, prompting a casual nod and an “Acha” (ok) from Kohli.
Fans were quick to notice Kohli’s greying beard, with one commenting, Kolly looks 60 years old man 😭 with that beard…”
“BGT mein aag lagani hain Virat Kohli (You’ve to fire in the BGT)”. Virat Kohli – Kisme lagani hain aag? (Where I have to fire) 😂❤️.”
