After that, the action of Indian Premier League (PSL) and Pakistan Super League (PSL) started at the same time which is still going on. In such a situation, the eyes of the viewers are on both sides. But not only common cricket fans, but some cricketers also have their eyes on it. One such player playing in Pakistani league has his eyes set on IPL and he too has become crazy about Virat Kohli’s batting.
On April 24, there was a clash between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Gujarat Titans in IPL. In this, Bengaluru achieved the target of 206 runs given by Gujarat in 19 overs.

This post of Billings became very viral and fans started giving different reactions on it. This is not the first time when he has praised Kohli. Even before this, on different occasions, he has been expressing his passion for Virat’s batting.
Ban in Pakistan, still watching IPL
The most interesting thing in this whole matter is that despite being in Pakistan, Sam Billings has his eyes on IPL and he is enjoying these matches. This is interesting because the telecast of IPL is completely banned in Pakistan. In such a situation, there is no official telecast of the world’s biggest T20 league there. But it is possible that Sam Billings is watching this league even while living in Pakistan with the help of VPN. This English batsman, who has played in IPL, is currently playing for Rawalpindi Pindies in PSL.
