Virat Kohli has etched his name in the annals of cricketing history through his sensational performances over the years. His legacy extends far beyond his prolific run-scoring and captaincy prowess; he has redefined the modern batsman, inspiring a generation of aspiring cricketers worldwide.1
His outstanding performances throughout the years have earned him a plethora of accolades, most recently being featured in Pubity Sports’ prestigious “10 Greatest Athletes” list. To add to the joy, Kohli is the only cricketer in the list which also features Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Muhammed Ali, Michael Jordan, Usain Bolt, Mike Tyson, LeBron James, Serena Williams and Michael Phelps.
This is a proud moment not only for Kohli but for every Indian as he has put the nation on the world map with his exceptional skills and dedication to the game.
At present, Kohli is engaged in the ODI World Cup with India looking good to go all the way. Undefeated India, led by Kohli, heads into the November 15 semi-final with 8 wins. Kohli’s stellar 543 runs rank him second in the tournament’s run-scoring charts. His contributions include two centuries and four half-centuries. In India’s recent encounter against South Africa, Kohli matched the legendary Sachin Tendulkar’s record for the most centuries scored in one-day internationals.
Kohli’s unwavering focus remains on securing India’s World Cup victory on home soil. India’s final group-stage clash against the Netherlands on Sunday, November 12, will unfold at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, a venue where Kohli holds a deep understanding of the pitch and its conditions. The local fans eagerly anticipate a substantial contribution from the veteran’s bat, and given his recent resurgence in form, it would be no surprise if he delivers a performance that matches their expectations.
Here, we look at how ‘X’ reacted to Kohli’s latest achievement:
