But I think the ground which really stands out for me is, of course, the Chinnaswamy in Bengaluru. Yeah, that ground will always be very special for me,” Kohli said at an Asian Paints event. The event came shortly after the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced Asian Paints as India’s Colour Partner for the next three years. The partnership, valued at around INR 45 crore, will run through two major ICC tournaments in 2026, the Men’s T20 World Cup and the Women’s T20 World Cup. Kohli, who played a pivotal role in RCB’s title-winning campaign earlier this year by scoring 657 runs in 15 innings at a strike rate of 144.71, is now set to return to international cricket. He will feature in India’s upcoming ODI series against South Africa, following his recent three-match stint in Australia.
