Ambati Rayudu had targeted Virat Kohli

Let us tell you that during a conversation on Star Sports, the former CSK player made a big statement about Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) veteran batsman Virat Kohli. The right-handed batsman said that winning the Orange Cap does not win the trophy. The cricketer turned commentator gave a big reaction on this matter.

He had said, “For KKR, great players like Sunil Narine, Andre Russell and Mitchell Starc came forward and performed well and congratulations to them for contributing as a team. This is how a team wins the IPL. We have seen the same in the last few years that when many players contribute 300 runs, the team becomes the champion. The Orange Cap never makes you win the IPL.”
