Under the captaincy of Virat Kohli, the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) seem to be enjoying their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 campaign. While on-field performances have been phenomenal, Kohli’s men are having a lot of fun, off it. On Thursday, Kohli took to social media and came up with a hilarious caption for a picture from their training session. He shared a photo of himself and his teammates, AB de Villiers, Devdutt Padikkal, and Mohammed Siraj staring at the camera from during their drills.
The RCB skipper said the photo reminded him of his school days wherein children often seen giving excuses for not having finished homework.

Captioning the picture on Instagram, Kohli wrote: “This pic takes me back to school days. 4 guys from the same class, and AB is the kid who’s finished homework and is prepared and the other 3 know they are in trouble.”

As expected, the picture grabbed a lot of limelight with Yuzvendra Chahal and Rashid Khan adding to the banter with comments on it. Sunrisers Hyderabad star poked fun at Siraj’s expression, saying: “And Siraj doesn’t even know that teacher has given us homework”.

Chahal joined in and explained his absence from the photo. “Aur Maine class bunk kar li coz aaj homework check Hona tha (I bunked today’s class, knowing our homework will be checked)”. Responding to Chahal’s comment, Rashid said that the naughty kid has to bring his parents to the school and explain his absence to the teacher.
The mood in RCB’s camp is upbeat as Kohli and his men have won 7 out of the 10 games they have played so far and as a result, they are standing at the 2nd spot. One more win will help them all but seal a play-offs spot but, as De Villiers said, RCB will not be settling for just a play-offs spot but a top 2 finish.
RCB will really be hoping to finis the league stage at the top-2 positions as they still have 4 matches. After their dominant 8-wicket win over Kolkata Knight Riders, RCB will next face Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Sunday following a 3-day break.
