The wait to see Virat Kohli play again will be over in just a few days. The ODI series between India and Australia begins on October 19th. Virat Kohli will showcase his prowess on the field in three matches of this series. But will this be Kohli’s last series? This question remains, and fans hope to see him play even after this. If not in international cricket, then at least his prowess will be seen in the IPL. But now Kohli fans are worried again because Virat has taken a step related to his IPL team, Royal Challengers Bangalore, which has intensified speculation about his departure from the IPL. For past few hours there are heavy speculations about Virat Kohli’s future in Royal Challengers Bengalore and Indian Premier League. Will he also retire from IPL and RCB soon?
Why are the speculations circulating?
In fact, a report emerged stating that Virat Kohli had refused to sign a commercial contract with RCB. This sparked speculation about Virat’s departure from RCB. From social media to the news world, this issue was discussed, but no one revealed the real truth. Well, here we will tell you the truth.
It’s worth noting that Virat Kohli is not parting ways with RCB. He has simply refused to sign a commercial contract. This does not mean he is leaving RCB. He’s also not going to retire just yet. He will play for RCB in IPL 2026.
Understand the exact situation?
For your information, a commercial contract and a player contract are two different things. If Virat were to leave RCB, he would have terminated his player contract, but he has refused to sign a commercial contract. This means he may be refusing to associate with any brand. Franchises often take on various sponsorships, often stating that their players will film videos or do advertisements for them during the league.
In such cases, they receive substantial amounts of money as sponsorship. However, Virat likely doesn’t want to be associated with any brand, which is why he has refused to sign a commercial contract. However, no report has revealed which brand Virat has refused to associate with.
