Lizlaz's Shocking Claims


German Model Lizlaz has alleged that some journalists attempted to bribe her to speak negatively about Virat Kohli. This situation arose after Kohli liked one of her Instagram posts, which subsequently gained significant media attention and boosted her popularity in India. In a conversation with Filmymantra, Lizlaz disclosed that various social media outlets reached out to her, allegedly trying to persuade her to fabricate negative statements about Kohli. “Some journalists even offered me money to say bad things about him and make unfounded allegations. But why would I do that?” she remarked.


Lizlaz expressed her astonishment at the sudden attention and admitted to feeling emotional upon witnessing Kohli's engagement with her. “I was very happy and a little emotional about it, but I never expected something like this to happen,” she shared.



She further noted that the pressure to speak ill of Kohli made her uncomfortable. “So why would I say bad things about him for money? I'm not that kind of person,” she concluded. Following the uproar, Lizlaz shared multiple images of herself donning the RCB jersey, showing her support for the team.


Virat Kohli's Mixed Performance in IPL 2026

On another note, Virat Kohli's performance in IPL 2026 has been inconsistent. He has accumulated 379 runs across 11 matches but faced dismissals for ducks in his last two games. This decline in form could raise concerns for RCB as they approach the playoffs. Nevertheless, despite Kohli's fluctuating performance, RCB has managed to secure victories in seven out of their 11 matches, positioning themselves favorably for playoff qualification. The team is aiming for a top-two finish to secure a spot in Qualifier 1. With three matches remaining in IPL 2026, winning at least one or two should suffice for RCB to clinch a top-two position.
