With Kohli, there's is never a dull moment, whether it's on-the-field or off-the-field. In a hilarious video shared on social media, Kohli took part in a blindfold challenge where he tried to identify his RCB teammates and Indian football team captain Sunil Chhetri.

The video was shared by Puma, RCB's official kit sponsor, on their Instagram handle with a caption: "Game recognises game". Kohli started the challenge by mistaking Dinesh Karthik with Mohammed Siraj.

However, he managed to recognise Karthik eventually by toucing his beard. He then recognised Siraj by his watch. Siraj was followed by RCB captain Faf du Plessis, whom Kohli identified from his tattoos and the watch on his right arm.
