Virat Kohli is the star batsman of Team India and Royal Challengers Bangalore and is also one of the most followed athletes world-wide. He has a huge fan base across different social media platforms and has a justifiable impact on youngsters, particularly those who are taking up the sport. So there is no reason one would say no if the star batsman makes an unexpected appearance in their cricket podcast.
This is what happened on the Willow Talk podcast when the superstar Virat Kohli made a surprise appearance during the host chat with the fast bowler of South Africa, Kagiso Rabada. The South African bowler is currently playing for the Punjab Kings, who are going to host the Royal Challengers Bangalore in Dharamshala later on Thursday.
A video clip capturing the spontaneous moment has been going viral on the social media platform, which shows the surprised reaction of Rabada as he spotted Virat Kohli’s unexpected appearance behind his computer screen. Rabada says in the interviews that Virat Kohli is right there; he is dancing. After this, he tells Virat that he is on a podcast. To this, Virat asks him with whom Rabada says, “It’s called Willow talk.”
The interviewer then asked Rabada to invite Virat Kohli to join the stage and greet the audience. Virat Kohli, while greeting the audience, stepped before the camera and said hello, boys. He further asks them about what is going on there.
When the interviewer asked for the opinion of Virat Kohli on the bowling of Kagiso, Virat cheerily acknowledged the fact that Kagiso was wearing earphones and he was not able to hear anything as he said, “I cannot hear anything, so I am just going to keep blabbering as always.”

Unaware of the question of the interviewer, Kohli happily interacted with Rabada, creating a lighthearted atmosphere. In response to the question of the interviewer regarding his bowling skills Rabada said, “Virat thinks I am a weak bowler.”
After this, Virat Kohli said goodbye, leaving Rabada to continue with the podcast.
