Despite RCB’s loss, Kohli took the time to interact with Singh in the RCB dressing room. He not only offered words of encouragement but also gifted Singh his own bat, symbolizing support and camaraderie.
Moved by Kohli’s gesture, Singh later took to Instagram to express his gratitude. In an Instagram story, Singh thanked Kohli not just for the bat but also for the valuable advice. This gesture not only highlighted Kohli’s generosity but also showcased the bond between players beyond the field of play.
