Rajasthan Royals-owned franchise Barbados Royals hilariously trolled Afghanistan cricketer Naveen-ul-haq taking Virat Kohli's clips. Naveen will now feature in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) which is scheduled to start from August 30. Both Kohli and Naveen were recently involved in an on-field verbal spat during the Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Lucknow Super Giants match.
The two had an interesting end to the storied rivalry in the World Cup 2023 match where both the cricketers put an end to the rivalry with a heartfelt hug during India's ODI World Cup 2023 clash against Afghanistan at Arun Jaitely stadium in New Delhi.
Barbados Royals shared a video of frustrated Naveen after hearing Kohli, here is the clip.

In the video, Naveen-ul-Haq is shown scrolling through his phone watching reels. He comes across reels from the popular YouTuber IShowSpeed, who is known for his die-heart support of Virat Kohli. Naveen, looking visibly frustrated, locks his phone and walks away. As he moves through his space, he notices a paper cutting on the wall with an English skipper’s name 'Ben Stokes' written on it. The name is humorously linked to Kohli. Naveen, clearly unimpressed, shakes his head and continues on his way.
What's ahead for Naveen
