This is not the first time, we are seeing Kohli giving up his luxury business class seat and deciding to travel in economy. During the T20 World Cup 2022 in November last year, King Kohli along with head coach Rahul Dravid and captain Rohit Sharma reportedly gave away their business class tickets to the pacers of the team as they toil more than any other players and deserve more leg room.
The 35-year old, who is in red-hot form in the ongoing World Cup, smashed an unbeaten hundred in India’s last game against South Africa in Kolkata and equalled the great Sachin Tendulkar’s record of 49 ODI centuries. Till now, the the RCB man has a total of 79 international centuries to his name. He occupies the second position in the leading run-getters list with 543 runs so far in the World Cup.
India on the other hand have qualified for the semis of the World Cup and have also consolidated their first position in the league standings with 16 points. The Men in Blue are the only team unbeaten so far in the tournament. The hosts will face Netherlands in their last league game before they get ready for the business end of the competition.
