Vadodara, Feb 6 (NationPress) Just one day after their remarkable victory, Royal Challengers Bengaluru unveiled a motivational video from Virat Kohli that significantly uplifted the team's morale ahead of their Women’s Premier League (WPL) final against Delhi Capitals. In this thrilling match, they successfully chased down a historic target of 204 runs, securing their second title in the tournament.

In the video shared by the franchise on Friday, Kohli was seen addressing the team the day before the final. The former captain of India encouraged the players to seize the moment and concentrate on the little things that define crucial matches.

“I wouldn’t label it just another day or another game because that’s what we play for: the big finals, the significant moments, the trophies,” Kohli expressed.

The 36-year-old praised the squad for their journey to the final yet again and for finishing at the top of the standings, attributing their success to their consistency and their ability to handle pressure throughout the season.

“I’ve observed your performances this season, and it’s been incredible to see how you’ve triumphed in high-pressure situations. It’s no surprise that we were the first to reach the finals, finishing atop the table,” he stated.

Reflecting on their campaign, Kohli highlighted the significance of learning from tough periods during the league, identifying this as a characteristic of championship-worthy teams.

“There were a few games where it was beneficial to reflect on areas for improvement. And that’s precisely what you all did in the concluding matches,” he noted.

Stressing the importance of commitment and intensity on the field, Kohli urged the players to challenge themselves in key moments.

“The small details make all the difference in the end. If you have the chance to put your body on the line for that ball, do it. If you can dive into the crease for that single run, do it. That’s what will matter at the end of the day,” Kohli emphasized.

He wrapped up his message by wishing the team success, hoping their hard work would be acknowledged.

“You should leave the field with your head held high. That’s all I wish for you. Go RCB,” he concluded.

Motivated by the words of their franchise icon, RCB Women delivered a composed performance in the final, overcoming Delhi Capitals by 6 wickets at the BCA Stadium (Kotambi) on Thursday, thereby claiming the WPL title, marking a historic achievement for the Bengaluru franchise.

Virat celebrated the team’s success with a post on Instagram, commending the squad's effort and the leadership of Smriti Mandhana.

“Champions once more. Keeping the RCB flag flying high is something you all should take pride in. To Smriti @smriti_mandhana and the entire squad and management team, a huge congratulations on this incredible victory. You all truly deserve this. Cherish the moment and embrace the affection from our wonderful fans,” he wrote.
