Virat Kohli sets internet on fire with new haircut ahead of IPL 2023

The 16th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is scheduled to begin on March 31, and fans seem to be in line to see the biggest T20 league in the world in action once again. Meanwhile, Royal Challengers Bangalore star Virat Kohli grabbed all the headlines ahead of the tournament.

Ace batter Kohli was seen flaunting his new hairstyle ahead of the 16th edition of the IPL. The India star grabbed all the attention after he posted his new hairdo on his Instagram story. He also thanked his stylist, the celebrity hairstylist Aalim Hakim in the story as he showcased his haircut to his fans on the social media platform.

Kohli’s influence on social media is no lesser than his influence on the pitch. The 34-year-old has garnered fans from all over the world, thanks to his influential performances with the bat over the years. He is all set to perform at the upcoming edition of the IPL and potentially propel RCB to their first IPL title.

Royal Challengers Bangalore take on Mumbai Indians in their first match

With the 2023 IPL all set to begin on March 31, Royal Challengers Bangalore will be under Faf Du Plessis’ captaincy in 2023, and the franchise will hope that their run without an IPL title will finally end in 2023.

RCB’s first game of the tournament will be played against the five-time champion Mumbai Indians. The Rohit Sharma-led side will be desperate to improve on their campaign after a horrid run in the 2022 IPL. MI finished the tournament in last place in the IPL points table with just eight points in 14 games.

On the other hand, Kohli’s performances could be key for RCB as in 223 IPL matches so far, the star batter has accumulated 6624 runs to his name. One of the greatest batters to ever play in the tournament, the franchise will hope that Kohli comes into his own and performs for the team once again, with an aim to lift their maiden title.
