With the clock ticking faster than ever to the opening day of the latest IPL iteration, fans simply cannot wait to see RCB in action. The Royal Challengers Bengaluru will kickstart their campaign with a clash against their southern rivals, Sunrisers Hyderabad on 28th of March.

Speaking on JioStar, RCB Hall of Famer AB de Villiers opened up on how amped up Virat Kohli will be to be part of this upcoming season. Kohli’s former teammate at Royal Challengers Bengaluru highlighted the work ethic that drives the King.

ABD said, “First of all, he (Kohli) has the best work ethic I have ever seen in my life. So, he will not enter the tournament undercooked. If he doesn’t perform, it will purely be down to form or perhaps a technical issue. I am expecting a great season from him. I can only imagine how hyped he must be after getting some well-deserved rest.”

Highlighting Virat's hunger to win trophies, ABD added, “Virat will most definitely be ready, there is no doubt about that, and RCB can actually go back-to-back. You will remember him often saying in the dressing room, ‘If we can win one, we are going to win two, three, four quickly.”

The former RCB superstar also felt the team is in a fine headspace now, thereby making a bold prediction. ABD predicted, “I truly believe that. I feel RCB are in that zone now where they can go bang, bang, bang - perhaps two or three trophies in a row. Who knows? I am just hoping for a really strong start this season; that will be crucial for them. My advice to Virat would be to just go out there and enjoy.”
