Bear Grylls, a renowned survival expert, has indicated an interest in filming an episode of his popular program “Man vs. Wild” with the former captain of the Indian cricket team, Virat Kohli.
Grylls has become extremely well-known in India as a result of his excursions with Ranveer Singh, one of the most prominent Bollywood actors, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In addition, he has traveled the world with several well-known actors.
What did Bear Grylls say about Virat Kohli?
The wild trail explorer, who was born in the United Kingdom, is eager to embark on an expedition with Kohli as the latter continues to gain fame. On Sunday, Grylls gave the following statement when he was interviewed by the Hindustan Times:
“Virat (cricketer Virat Kohli) would be an incredible companion on any journey because he has both the bravery and the generosity of a lion.”

Kohli also has a strong passion for extreme sports, an aspect of his life that he often discusses in public. However, as part of their official contracts with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), cricketers are forbidden from participating in certain activities to reduce the risk of injury.
When will Kohli be back?
When we talk about cricket, we should mention that the talismanic run-scorer was last seen in action during the series against England. He struggled mightily with the bat, and although he played all three formats of the game, he was unable to score big runs in any of them.

As Kohli did not participate in the white-ball tour that is now taking place in the West Indies, he will not participate in the forthcoming one-day international series that will be played against Zimbabwe. The first game of the series is scheduled to take place on August 18, with the subsequent two games taking place on August 20 and 22. The Harare Sports Club, located in Harare, will serve as the venue for all of the matches.
It is anticipated that he will make his comeback at the Asia Cup, which will take place at the end of this month. Because the ICC Twenty20 World Cup is going to be held in Australia in a few months, he will probably want to get some runs under his belt as soon as possible.
