What happened last year

In 2016, Kohli's "Virat Kohli Foundation" in association with Bachchan's "Playing for Humanity" played in Mumbai. For the All Hearts, Yuvraj Singh and Rahul scored, but the match ended in a 2-2 draw as Bollywood stars matched the abilities of the Indian cricketers.

Meanwhile, Kohli has been excited about returning to the football field. The 28-year-old has even likened himself with Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo and has also discussed the football skills of his teammates.
