Comedian Danish Sait who plays anchor and mascot for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premiere League is back as Mr Nags. In a viral video, Sait who is known for his antics and fun interviews gate crashed the IPL 2022 Mega-Auction on Saturday, February 12, and gave the auction team his ‘valuable inputs’.

The quirky video shared by RCB on their official Twitter handle initiates with a frame showing standing a balcony where he mocks a call to skipper Virat Kohli and then asking if he should “take Kapil Dev as a fast bowler as his movie has been just released,” then we hear a call disconnecting sound before Mr Nigs says on call, “Virat, you want to be a captain.” He then breaks into the RCB’s team meeting where he says nasty things to coaches and management of the franchise.
