With the announcement that IPL 2020 will be held in UAE from September 19 to November 10, cricketers are over the moon and eagerly waiting to showcase their skills on the field.
On Tuesday (August 4), India skipper Virat Kohli shared a post on his Instagram account with a clock and hourglass emojis, indicating that he is counting days for the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League to start.

In the post, Kohli also uploaded a couple of pictures. The RCB captain can be seen batting alongside AB de Villiers in the first photo, while he and his teammates can be seen celebrating a wicket in the second image.
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) are yet to win an IPL title despite having some of the game’s superstars in their ranks over the years.
Under Kohli’s captaincy, the franchise has failed to qualify for the play-offs in the last three seasons. While Virat had an extraordinary year with the bat, smashing four centuries in IPL 2016 wherein they reached the final, RCB have finished 8th, 6th and 8th in the eight-team table in the subsequent editions.
Virat Kohli will be hoping to lead his team to their maiden IPL title this year.
