IPL 2026: 'Batting With Virat Kohli Is An Amazing Experience,' Says Jacob Bethell
The Royal Challengers Bengaluru: The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) opener Jacob Bethell highlighted the special experience of batting alongside Virat Kohli, calling it one of the standout moments of his Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 journey so far, as the team clashes with the Gujarat Titans (GT) at Narendra Modi Stadium on Thursday.
Bethell spoke about the incredible atmosphere that follows Kohli wherever he plays, saying it often feels like a home game even at away venues. “Batting with Virat Kohli is an amazing experience; the love for him across India is incredible. Every match feels like a home game. Obviously, the Chinnaswamy is on another level, but even here, the atmosphere is nearly as intense. It’s unbelievable,” he told broadcasters ahead of the match.
The young opener, who was not included in the playing XI in the opening matches, added that adapting to the IPL environment has been smooth, with the transition from practice sessions to match situations mainly requiring a shift in mindset.
