WPL: Virat Kohli was being compared… Smriti Mandhana’s answer left everyone speechless

Mumbai: The excitement of the Women’s Premier League has begun. Mumbai had won after the opening ceremony at the DY Patil Stadium, while a question was asked to Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Smriti Mandhana. The question was about him and Virat Kohli, to which the captain of the team gave such an answer which left everyone speechless.

He drew comparisons with Virat Kohli during the pre-match press conference. During this, when a journalist questioned her, the woman cricketer said – I do not like such comparisons, because what he (Virat Kohli, who was the captain of the men’s Royal Challengers Bangalore team for a long time) has achieved is amazing. I just hope I get to that level, but I’m nowhere near it. I would like to try and replicate what he has achieved for this franchise (RCB).


Let us tell you that under the captaincy of Virat Kohli, the team has been runner up once. At the moment he is not the captain, but he is still seen in the leadership role in the team. Smriti Mandhana further said about WPL- Well, definitely I think it is definitely a big moment for all of us including all the overseas (players), because it is the first match of WPL. We have been part of teams where we have played in pressure situations. One thing we always say and that is something we should enjoy and support each other.
