IPL 2023: Virat Kohli, Faf Du Plessis, Kedar Jadhav and other members of the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) contingent were spotted at Mohammed Siraj's new house ahead of the team's must-win match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) on Thursday.

RCB, who are currently placed fifth in the ten-team IPL 2023 table, are currently in the Telangana capital Hyderabad and gearing up for their second-last league match. The side has 12 points from as many matches and need to win both their remaining league matches.

In a video posted by a twitter user, Kohli and Siraj can be seen alongside the other members of the squad at the entrance of the new house in Jubilee Hills locality in Hyderabad. Notably, the RCB squad had visited Siraj's house during the IPL 2023 as well.

In the latest episode of the Breakfast with Champions, Siraj repeated the story regarding Kohli and RCB squad's first visit to his home in 2018. Siraj had bought a new home back then as well. The 29-year-old revealed how Kohli surprised and handed him the "biggest gift of his life".

“I invited Virat bhai to my house saying I was hosting a dinner, will you come? He said yes, yes Miyan. I will. Then I arranged everything and invited the whole team. I called by Virat again and he said he couldn’t make it because he had a stiff back. I was sad but he ultimately ended up making it and gave me a surprise. I ran and hugged him. It was the biggest gift of my life,” Siraj said.

The action between RCB and SRH will kick off live from the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Hyderabad from 7:30 PM IST on Thursday. Hyderabad are already out of the play-offs race.
