After a lot of pleading, Kolkata Knight Riders star batsman Rinku Singh finally managed to get the bat of Royal Challengers Bangalore star Virat Kohli. Earlier in a viral video, Rinku was seen asking Kohli for his bat. While Kohli found out where he had given the player the previous bat, the RCB legend decided not to give Rinku the second willow despite the junior requesting for it a lot. Rinku had broken Kohli’s bat while playing against a spinner, the star had revealed in the video that surfaced. This conversation took place before the KKR vs RCB second leg match.
