Tottenham Hotspur and England football team captain, Harry Kane, has named his favorite Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise and, of course, it is no surprise that it is Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), as he has already expressed his admiration for former RCB skipper Virat Kohli.

He also shared his views on the Faf du Plessis-led RCB’s performance in the ongoing IPL 2022 compared to last season. At the moment, RCB is ranked third in the ongoing IPL 2022, having won five of their seven matches so far, and Kane believes the franchise can do wonders this season.

Speaking with Star Sports about his favorite IPL team, Harry Kane said: “So my team is RCB. I have been lucky enough to meet Virat Kohli a few times and speak with him. They have picked up some good players this time.”

He added, “They were unlucky last year but they did the right things this year, they started well. There are some great teams at the IPL. I just like watching all of them to be honest but hopefully, RCB can go well.”

Kane has been a huge fan of Kohli’s batting and he has once again shown his admiration for his batting and why he admired him as a person. 

He said, “Virat is incredible to watch. A real down-to-earth guy. He has fire in his batting and passion when you watch him play which is great to see.”

He signed off by saying, “We have been playing cricket for a year and a half and so we were playing pretty much once or twice a week and that was good fun. We enjoy playing cricket, obviously, the IPL is on at the moment so we’re enjoying watching that as well.”
