The nail-biting 37th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) turned out to be a poor batting effort on PBKS's side, but for RCB, the partnership between batting icon Virat Kohli and Rajat Padikkal kept the hopes of the RCB fans. Amid this, a stump mic conversation between Virat Kohli and PBKS's pacer Harpreet Brar during the match is going viral on social media.
In a short clip, Virat Kohli and Brar are spotted having a conversation in Punjabi, and fans are left on the edge to understand the meaning of the conversation. Netizens on X (formerly called Twitter) have different viewpoints on the same.
According to CricketGyan, Kohli said to Brar, "20 saal ho gaye mujhe yaha, tere coach ko bhi. Ache se jaanta hu mai. Aise hi stump todi jaata hai tu haath kamzor hogye hai ab tere (translated from Punjabi)." (It has been 20 years; I even know your coach. I know it very well. This is how stumps are broken; your hands have become weak now. (In English).

The former captain of RCB may have retired from T20IS, but he is still a threat in the shortest form. King Kohli started the IPL 2025 season with an unbeaten half-century.
