“Virat Kohli should leave RCB to win IPL”

Srinagar: Former England batter Kevin Pietersen has advised Virat Kohli to leave RCB in order to realise dream of winning IPL trophy.

Virat Kohli and RCB were once again left disappointed as they crashed to a defeat against Rajasthan Royals in the IPL 2024 Eliminator, on Wednesday.

Speaking after the match, England legend Kevin Pietersen had some advice for Kohli, feeling that the veteran needed to join another franchise to win his first-ever IPL title.

“I have said it before and I will say it again — the greats of the game in other sports, have left teams to go and seek glory somewhere else. When he has tried and tried so hard — won the Orange Cap yet again and done so much yet again and the franchise fails again. I understand for the brand of the team and the commercial value he brings to the team… But Virat Kohli deserves a trophy. He deserves to play in a team that could help him to get that trophy,” he said, on Star Sports.

“I actually think it should be Delhi. Delhi is the place where Virat needs to go. Virat can go away, and stay at home most of the time, I know he has a home in Delhi. He has a young family. He can spend more time there. He is a Delhi boy. Why can’t he go back? Delhi are as desperate as Bengaluru,” he said.

“I think it’s about time Virat thought long and hard. Beckham left, Ronaldo left, Messi left, Harry Kane just left Spurs and went to Bayern Munich,” he further added.
