‘Utsav ki Taiyari Karo’- Fans react as CAB plans celebrations for Virat Kohli’s 35th Birthday
India’s Cricket World Cup campaign so far has been flawless. They have won all of their matches and are the clear favourites to win the tournament. India has excelled in all three departments of the game: batting, bowling, and fielding. Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and KL Rahul have been in scintillating form with the bat, while Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, Kuldeep Yadav, Hardik Pandya, and Ravindra Jadeja have been equally impressive with the ball.
India has three matches remaining before the knockouts, and fans will be hoping that the team maintains its momentum and enters the semi-finals with unwavering confidence. India’s remaining opponents are Sri Lanka, South Africa, and the Netherlands.
On November 5th, Virat Kohli will turn 35 and India will be in action against the South African unit at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. On that auspicious day, he will be in action at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
Virat Kohli will be in action on 35th Birthday
Virat Kohli has a superb track record at the iconic venue. He has an aggregate of 330 runs in seven innings at an average of 47.14 and a strike rate of 88.95. He has three half-centuries and a century to his name at the venue, and he will be looking to add to those numbers. In this tournament, Kohli has been in good touch form, having scored 354 runs in six innings. He will be looking forward to the celebration and will be desperate to help India notch up another win on that day to make it a memorable one.
Earlier, this website had reported that the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) is planning a special birthday celebration for Virat Kohli. Now, reports have emerged that it will indeed be a grand affair, with a cake-cutting ceremony, laser show, fireworks, and 70,000 Virat Kohli masks to be distributed.
Here’s how X has reacted to the development:

Hope Kohli will score big as return gift!

While I respect Virat Kohli, these over the top naach gaana is cringe. It's an ICC world cup- either do it for everyone or don't do it. Partisan behavior for Indian stars is cringe.

Feels like we are overdoing it. Fireworks are fine till team level but doesn't seems nice for birthday of player as many players had their birthdays during world cup. They can do normal cake cutting like what they did for pandya.
