Watch : Naveen Ul-Haq make fun of Virat Kohli on Instagram after GT cancelled RCB’s play-off qualifications!

After Kohli’s record-breaking century on Sunday, AB de Villiers tweeted, “Virat is there when we need him.” The G and F of the renowned KGF collapsed, as did the rest of the middle order, in a game that was either won or lost for Royal Challengers Bangalore at home against the reigning champion Gujarat Titans.

However, Kohli fought solo against the talented Gujarat bowlers, marching alone, and eventually completed his second straight century in IPL 2023. The playoffs appeared to be within reach for RCB. Shubman Gill in especially at GT, however, had other ideas. He also hit a second consecutive century, following Kohli, as RCB missed out on the final rounds.

𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗺𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀. 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲!

And right after it was confirmed that Mumbai Indians are going through and RCB is not, Kohli’s bitter rival from Afghanistan Naveen Ul-Haq took to Instagram and in a way dissed and made fun of RCB and Kohli for not being able to qualify for the play-offs.

The Eden Gardens audience mercilessly launched verbal assaults towards the LSG pacer on Saturday, just like they had done to him at Lucknow when they had been taunting him through obnoxious “Kohli” chants. He wasn’t permitted to breathe at either of the locations once. The audience tried to divert him while he was playing each time.

Additionally, the crowd was at his ears while he fielded. However, neither Naveen nor the LSG star were responsible for keeping the conflict going on social media. One of these postings appeared on Sunday just after RCB fell by six wickets at the Chinnaswamy. He posted a video of a prominent African reporter saying, “God have mercy upon us,” before laughing, on Instagram.
