Virat Kohli returning to Ranji Trophy 2024-25 has appeared to be more than a festival in Delhi. The premier batter has returned to domestic cricket after 12 years as he is playing against Railways at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.
Kohli, making his comeback to the Ranji Trophy, has seen more than 15000 fans coming to the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. The batter has involved the crowd as well and all that has been heard in the stadium is "Kohli, Kohli" chants.
Not only for the fans but also for the players for Delhi, Kohli playing Ranji Trophy has been a treat. The teammates of the premier batter have been enjoying a great time on the field and have been keeping their intensity high as well.
One of the heartfelt moments came when the fourth wicket of the Railways fell. As the Delhi team was in the huddle, celebrating the wicket, one of the members of the team came running and touched Virat Kohli's feet. The batter, however, moved away quickly.

Kohli will be keen be make runs for his time now and give fans something to cheer about. With the crowd turning up in huge numbers, they would be hoping that the India National Cricket Team batter slams a big century.
The match will be a great opportunity for Virat Kohli to regain his form
Kohli has been struggling to get runs in Test cricket. The batter has been averaging in the mid-20s for the last few years, and this has been the biggest spot of bother for the India National Cricket Team. He slammed just 190 runs in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, out of which 100 came in Perth.
The match will be a great opportunity for Kohli to regain his form and get some confidence ahead of the England Tests. Since the last few days, he has been putting in the hard yards and even worked with Sanjay Bangar in Mumbai as he was seen working on his backfoot game.
The thing which stands out for Virat Kohli is wherever he plays whether it’s for the country or for his state, he is involved - Shreevats Goswami
As Kohli got the crowd going at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, former cricketer Shreevats Goswami lauded the batter. He said that the standout thing about the batter is he gets everyone involved, and the intensity is always high. Taking to his Twitter account, he explained:
"Runs may come & go, but the thing which stands out for Kohli is wherever he plays, whether it’s for the country or for his state, he is involved. Stands in slips, claps after a good ball , chats & laughs with his teammate in the slip . The intensity just doesn’t drop. So good to see!"
