CRICKET
Sydney Sixers’ social media post claimed that Virat Kohli signed for the next two BBL seasons, creating a huge buzz.
The BCCI does not allow active Indian players to participate in overseas T20 leagues, making it impossible for Kohli to join BBL.
The post led to rumors about whether Kohli would retire after IPL 2025 to play in foreign leagues.
Fans were excited but later realized it was a prank, leaving them disappointed.
The team boasts top Australian cricketers like Steve Smith and Mitchell Starc, adding to the post’s credibility.
Former Aussie pacer Brett Lee once suggested privatizing the BBL to allow stars like Kohli to play.
Despite ongoing discussions, Kohli playing in BBL remains unrealistic due to strict Indian cricket policies.
He is currently playing for Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL 2025 and remains a crucial part of Team India.
