NEW DELHI: Amidst the cheering crowd at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, India superstar Virat Kohli, dressed in shorts, a T-shirt, and a sweater bearing the Delhi District Cricket Association logo, stepped out of the dressing room. The Delhi players were waiting for him to join in the light football session.
"Chalo bey, shuru karo," Virat said, marking his return to the Ranji Trophy after 12 years. His last appearance for Delhi was against Uttar Pradesh in 2012. For Kohli, it isn't just a comeback — it is a homecoming.
