IPL 2026: Kohli, Iyer put in the hard yards during training

[[{“value”:”

RCB began their preparations for the upcoming IPL season with an intense three-hour training session at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium here on Friday.

Opener Virat Kohli was seen playing a few shots and taking on the bowlers in a video posted by RCB on their social media handles.

The session also saw wicketkeeper-batter Jitesh Sharma and new recruit all-rounder Venkatesh Iyer spending extended time in the nets. 

Iyer found his rhythm after initially struggling, while top-order batter Devdutt Padikkal looked composed despite mistiming a few shots against both net bowlers and throwdown specialists. 

Jitesh combined wicketkeeping drills with batting and appeared comfortable against short-pitched deliveries. 

Veteran pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar and leg-spinner Suyash Sharma kept the batters in check with disciplined bowling.
