Kohli Gifts Signed Jersey to Noor Ahmad: In a heartwarming display of sportsmanship during the IPL 2024 match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Gujarat Titans (GT), Virat Kohli showcased his generosity by gifting a signed jersey to Afghanistan spinner Noor Ahmad after the latter dismissed him during the game.
During the clash between RCB and GT, Kohli, the former RCB skipper, was leading the charge for his team in pursuit of a target set by the Titans. However, in a surprising turn of events during the 11th over, Noor Ahmad managed to induce an edge off Kohli’s bat, leading to his dismissal. Despite Kohli’s attempt to maneuver the ball towards the covers, it spun away, finding the hands of the keeper, Wriddhiman Saha.
Despite Kohli’s dismissal, RCB managed to chase down the target set by the Titans, with commendable contributions from Dinesh Karthik and Swapnil Singh. Following the game, Noor Ahmad took to Instagram to express his gratitude for Kohli’s gesture, sharing a snapshot of the gifted jersey. Kohli’s message on the jersey, “Dear Noor, Well bowled. Wish you the best”.
Kohli’s gesture highlights his sportsmanship and underscores the camaraderie and mutual respect among players in the cricketing fraternity. As RCB climbs to the seventh position in the league standings, Kohli’s act serves as a reminder of the spirit of the game, transcending competition and fostering goodwill among players.
