Virat Kohli has become one of the most irreplaceable names in the history of Indian cricket. He has made a huge impact in Indian cricket and is a favorite of teammates.
Now, RCB star and Bengal pacer Akash Deep talks about his experiences with Virat Kohli. Aakash Deep says that he was able to get close to Virat on the advice of his senior former Indian batsman Manoj Tiwary in the Bengal team.
Aakash Deep says Tiwari had told him that if he could impress Kohli, he could play in the IPL and maybe even play for India.
The actor said this in an interview to Indian Express.
‘Virat is the captain of India. If you can impress him you can play next season and maybe even play for the Indian team. “Because you have all the potential to be a pace bowler,” Tiwary said.
That was my goal. I was able to perform well in all the practice matches and reach a team in the auction, ‘says Akash.
The player reached RCB for a base price of Rs 20 lakh in the mega star auction. Akash, who played five matches for Bengaluru this season, took five wickets.
The actor says that he was surprised by the fact that Virat knew a lot about him.

When you took me to the team you said you deserve to be here, something you have done for so long, just keep going. It was a very emotional moment, “said Akash Deep.
He will also play for Bengal in the ongoing Ranji Trophy. He shocked the cricketing world by scoring the fastest half-century in the history of first-class cricket.
