However, the fanboy was left escalated with his brief meeting with Kohli and was seen leaving the field with joy.

Another highlight of the Monday-night IPL 2024 clash was a doppelganger of PBKS captain Shikhar Dhawan. During the 18th over of the PBKS’ innings, a camera spotted Shikhar Dhawan’s look-alike and showed it on the big screen. The man had the same haircut as Dhawan. During the same time, another camera was on Virat Kohli, who was left in splits while fielding near the boundary line.
