'I saw Virat Kohli crying in bathroom': Yuzvendra Chahal reveals star batter broke down after losing 2019 WC Semi-Final
Virat Kohli is regarded as one of the greatest batters of all time. Kohli, who currently represents Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the Indian Premier League, is the former captain of India's national cricket team. He once lost the semifinal of India vs New Zealand during the 2019 World Cup held in Manchester, which brought tears to his eyes. Yuzvendra Chahal has now recounted the emotional moment and shared details about it. Yuzvendra Chahal reveals Virat Kohli cried in the bathroom after India lost 2019 World Cup semi-final In a recent podcast, Figuring Out With Raj Shamani, Yuzvendra Chahal revealed an emotional moment of Virat Kohli after losing the IND vs NZ semi-final in 2019. Chahal revealed that the star batter broke down in a bathroom. Recalling the time, he said, "I saw him crying in the bathroom. And then I was the last batter, when I was crossing him, he had tears in his eyes. In 2019, I saw everyone crying in the bathroom." Kohli had a good performance in the 2019 tournament; however, he got out for 1 (6), getting the Leg Before Wicket (LBW) against New Zealand cricketer Trent Boult. Meanwhile, Chahal also mentioned that the former captain couldn't control his tears on television after his IPL team, RCB, won the Indian Premier League this year. For the uninitiated, the team lifted the IPL trophy after 18 years. Yuzvendra Chahal talks about Kohli's captaincy In the same podcast, Yuzvendra Chahal got candid about the captaincy of Virat Kohli. The 35-year-old cricketer shared that Kohli has a positive energy that he brings with him every day. "It will only go up and never down," he added. Yuzvendra Chahal regrets his performance in 2019 World Cup semi-final Chahal, who was also a part of the 2019 World Cup tournament, shared that he regrets his below-par performance in the semi-final. He conceded 63 runs in 10 overs while picking up one wicket after Kane Williamson got out. New Zealand won the match by 18 runs on a reserved day while competing against India at the 2019 World Cup semi-final. While New Zealand made 239 runs in eight wickets, India scored 221 runs after an excellent bowling performance.

4 Players Lucknow Super Giants Might Release Before IPL 2026 Auction: Mayank Yadav, Akash Deep And...
photoDetails english 2940531 Rishabh Pant was picked by the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) for a whopping amount of Rs 27 crore in the 2025 IPL auction. However, the 27-year-old Pant failed to live up to the expectations in the IPL 2025 season, scoring just 269 runs in 14 matches in his first stint as LSG captain. Despite his underwhelming performance, LSG are likely to persist with Pant for IPL 2026 season. However, LSG are expected to make strategic realignments before the next season. The Lucknow-based franchise might consider releasing some under-performing players before the IPL 2026 auction and buy some impactful performers. Here's list of players Lucknow Super Giants might release before the IPL 2026 auction: Updated:Aug 02, 2025, 07:06 PM IST 1. Mayank Yadav 1 / 8 Tearaway pacer Mayank Yadav was retained by Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) for Rs 11 crore before the IPL 2025 season. However, Mayank's performance in the IPL 2025 was severely limited due to injuries. He played only two matches for the LSG and picked two wickets during the season. The young pacer struggled with his consistency and fitness, which reflected in his high economy rate of 12.50. Given his injury prone nature and high salary, LSG might consider releasing Mayank before the IPL 2026 auction and look for another impactful fast bowler. (Pic credit: IANS) Mayank Yadav's IPL Record 2 / 8 During his short IPL career, Mayank has picked 9 wickets in 6 matches with an economy rate of 9.17 so far. (Pic credit: IANS) 2. David Miller 3 / 8 Veteran South Africa player David Miller was signed by Lucknow Super Giants for Rs 7.5 crore during the Indian Premier League 2025 mega auction in Jeddah. He was given the finisher role in LSG for IPL 2025 but he flattered to deceive, scoring just 153 runs in 11 matches. Given his form, age and salary, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) might consider releasing David Miller before the IPL 2026 auction and buy some another finisher. (Pic credit: IANS) David Miller's IPL Record 4 / 8 David Miller, who has played for multiple teams in IPL, has scored 3077 runs in 141 matches with an average of 35.77 and strike rate of 138.60 so far. (Pic credit: IANS) 3. Akash Deep 5 / 8 India pacer Akash Deep was bought by Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) for Rs 8 crore in IPL 2025 auction in Saudi Arabia. However, he didn't perform up to the expectations, picking just 3 wickets in 6 matches with a poor economy rate of 12.25 during the IPL 2025 season. Considering his ordinary performance and good salary, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) might consider releasing Akash Deep before the IPL 2026 auction and buy some another pacer. (Pic credit: IANS) Akash Deep's IPL Record 6 / 8 Akash Deep, who is part of the India squad during the ongoing England tour, has picked 10 wickets in 14 matches in his IPL career so far. (Pic credit: IANS) 4. Shahbaz Ahmed 7 / 8 Shahbaz Ahmed, the versatile all-rounder, was bought by Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) for Rs 2.4 crore in the IPL 2025 auction. However, Shahbaz played just three matches during IPL 2025 season and didn't contribute much with bat and ball. Given the lack of trust in Shahbaz's ability, LSG might consider releasing him before the IPL 2026 auction. (Pic credit: X) Shahbaz Ahmed's IPL Record 8 / 8 Shahbaz Ahmed, a versatile left-handed batter and slow left-arm orthodox bowler, has scored 545 runs in 58 IPL matches so far. He has taken 22 wickets as well. (Pic credit: IANS)
