Virat Kohli has been retained by the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) for a staggering Rs 21 crore for IPL 2025.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru posted a video of Virat Kohli on their X handle on Thursday.
In the video, Kohli expressed deep gratitude for the unwavering support from the RCB fans and vowed to strive for the elusive IPL title during the next three-year cycle.
RCB unveiled their retention list ahead of the October 31 deadline, which included some surprising omissions. While Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, and Yash Dayal were retained, the franchise decided to release prominent players such as Mohammed Siraj, Glenn Maxwell, and former captain Faf du Plessis. Kohli's retention as the top pick, commanding a salary of INR 21 crore, was an expected move given his long-standing association with the team since the IPL's inception in 2008.
In his video message, Kohli reflected on his journey with RCB, noting that by the end of this new three-year cycle, he will have completed 20 years with the franchise. He described this milestone as a matter of immense pride and a testament to his enduring commitment to the team. Despite RCB's lack of an IPL title, Kohli acknowledged the incredible support from the fans, which remains unwavering and is largely attributed to his dedication and performances over the years.
