A newly circulated training video of Virat Kohli has triggered fresh alarm among Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) enthusiasts, as the acclaimed batter seemed to struggle during a practice session.
The footage, taken at M Chinnaswamy Stadium, depicted Kohli partaking in light runs between the wickets. However, he appeared to be moving gingerly, hinting at ongoing discomfort.
Knee Brace Questions Amid Ankle Injury
Compounding the uncertainty, Kohli was spotted wearing a knee brace throughout the session. This has perplexed fans, given that he recently suffered an ankle injury during RCB’s last match. The noticeable strapping and measured activity level indicate that the team management is adopting a cautious stance towards his recovery.
Injury Occurred Against Mumbai Indians
The injury scenario initially came to light during the battle with Mumbai Indians. Kohli felt discomfort just after five deliveries into the 10th over, necessitating on-field attention. He subsequently exited the field and did not return for the match.
Despite his absence, RCB claimed victory, yet Kohli’s premature exit raised significant concerns about his short-term fitness.
No Official Notice from RCB Yet
Currently, RCB has not released any official communication concerning Kohli’s injury update or anticipated recovery period. His involvement in the impending clash against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) remains unsure.
Participation Dependent on Fitness Evaluation
Kohli’s participation in the next match is likely to hinge on imminent fitness evaluations and medical approval. As a pivotal player in the batting sequence, RCB will prioritize ensuring his return only when he is fully fit.
Essential Player for RCB’s Season
Kohli has displayed remarkable form during the ongoing IPL 2026 season, providing critical support to the innings and stabilizing the top order. His presence is vital for RCB, particularly in high-stakes encounters.
For the time being, fans must await official updates as the scenario evolves ahead of RCB’s next match.
