Challengers Bangalore (RCB), sharing a picture of the skipper in his hotel room with the caption, “No days off for Captain Kohli!”

The RCB squad
and staff, like most other franchises, landed in Dubai on Friday. Kohli,

being one of the most star-studded and entertaining teams since the tournament’s
inception in 2008, RCB are yet to win an IPL title. They have reached the finals
on three occasions.

cash-rich league will be played over 53 days in starting September 19, with Dubai,
Abu Dhabi and Sharjah hosting the matches in bio-secure ‘bubbles’.
