Virat Kohli is not only known for his exceptional batting skills but also for his dynamic and engaging presence both on and off the field. Virat Kohli took the leaf out of Cristiano Ronaldo's celebration as the Indian stalwart was seen doing a mini-version of Cristiano Ronaldo's 'Siiuu' celebration during the IPL 2023 match against Punjab Kings at PCA Stadium in Mohali. 

Kohli and Siraj Recreated Cristiano Ronaldo's Iconic 'SIUUU' Celebration

In Match No. 27 of the IPL 2023 when Royal Challengers Bangalore were up against Punjab Kings in Mohali. This was a mid-table clash, Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis had scored brilliant half-centuries and Mohammed Siraj managed to take four wickets. 

While Virat made 59 runs from 47 balls, Du Plessis top-scored for RCB by making 84 runs. The 'destroyer-in-chief' in bowling Mohammed Siraj managed to take four PBKS batters. By taking four wickets, Siraj also reached the No.1 position in the leading wicket-takers list of the IPL 2023. 

Mohammed Siraj also inflicted a run-out  with a direct hit that ended Punjab's middle-order batter Harpreet Singh Bhatia's stay at the crease. Vijaykumar Vyshak came in to bowl the final over of the power play as Prabhsimran Singh stepped out and played a lofted shot. While Prabhsimran was looking at Siraj who was fielding at mid-off, Harpreet Singh quickly ran for the single which led to a misunderstanding between the two batters.


Siraj was quick to the ball, released it in one go, and smashed the stumps with a direct hit while Harpreet Singh was not even in the frame. Right after the stumps were broken, Mohammed Siraj broke into Cristiano Ronaldo’s ‘Siuuu’ Celebration and Virat Kohli was also seen recreating this iconic celebration. 


Virat Kohli also performed Cristiano Ronaldo's iconic 'SIUUUU' celebration with Siraj when they celebrated a wicket during India vs Netherlands match on November 13 during the ICC World Cup 2023.
