Xtra Time Web Desk: India pacer Mohammed Siraj revealed that Virat Kohli coming to his house was the best surprise of his life.

Sharing some anecdotes from his past on the RCB podcast, Siraj said: "I had invited everyone from RCB to my house for dinner. I went home straight from the hotel. When I called him (Kohli) up, he said, 'I have a stiff back miyan, I can't come.' I told him to rest. What more could I say.

"But, when everyone came, I saw him get off the car. Everyone was there, PP (Parthiv Patel) bhai, Chahal bhai. I just ran towards bhaiya (Kohli) and hugged him. It was the best surprise of my life because bhaiya (Kohli) had said he won't come. It became news: Virat Kohli has come to Toli Chowki," he added.

Siraj is one of the three players to be retained by RCB for IPL 2022. The other two players are Virat Kohli and Glenn Maxwell.
