New Delhi: India batsman Virat Kohli has spent a lot of time playing street cricket before playing for Delhi in Ranji Trophy. Recalling those times, Kohli and Puma made a fun video explaining the meaning of two slang words which was quite popular in street cricket. One among them is ‘batta’ and the other one ‘baby over.’
The video, titled Do You Know Your Cricket Slang, puts Kohli in the spotlight as the 33-year-old explaining the meanings of popular local slang used in Indian street cricket.
Hilarious explanation Virat Kohli on Cricket Slangs!!!
Kohli couldn’t hold back the laughter as he narrated the instances in response to local cricket terms, according to a release by his sponsors.
“Batta is a desi and rugged word for chucking,” Kohli said in his response to the term as he spent some light moments off-the-field in a short fun video clip.
While Kohli explained, how ‘baby over’ is a three-ball over. He also introduced the slang ‘try ball’ which means the first ball of the over.
Virat tweeted, “How well do you know your cricket slangs?” on his official Twitter handle.

The amusing video clip brings out the 33-year-old’s off-the-field personality. Kohli performed exceedingly well in the Asia Cup 2022 in UAE, slamming a much-awaited 71st century as well as two half-centuries to conclude the tournament as the second-highest run-getter.
