Introduction
Virat Kohli is an
Indian international cricketer. He is a middle order batsman, who can also open
the batting. He can also bowl right arm medium pace.
Kohli was the captain
of the victorious Indian team at the 2008 U/19 Cricket World Cup held in
Malaysia. He represents Delhi in first-class cricket and plays for Royal
Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League.
He also played for the
West Delhi Cricket Academy.[2] He made his One Day International (ODI) debut in
2008 and was part of the Indian team which won the 2011 World Cup.
Despite being a
regular in the ODI side, Kohli only played his first Test in 2011 against West
Indies in Kingston. But on the disastrous 2011/12 India tour of Australia, in
which India's senior batsmen struggled throughout, Kohli stood out, scoring his
first Test hundred in Adelaide.
Virat Kohli is
currently regarded as one of India's potential number three batman in Tests, after
the retirement of Rahul Dravid following the Australian tour.Virat Kohli was
born on 5 November 1988 in Delhi to Prem and Saroj Kohli.
He has an elder
brother, Vikash, and an elder sister, Bhavna.Virat attended school at Vishal
Bharti and Savier Convent. Virat's father, Prem, worked as a lawyer and died in
December 2006.Little is known of Virat Kohli's personal life.
FACTS
1. India didn't bring home the World Twenty20 cup,
but guess who's still on cloud nine. The handsome Virat Kohli who walked away
with the Man of the Series award, is thrilled with his performance during the
tournament and rightly so! The 25-year-old batsman has certainly earned the
accolades. As the country celebrates this rising cricket star, we bring you 10
interesting facts you probably didn't know about Delhi hottie Virat Kohli.
2. Hottie Virat Kohli's nickname 'Chikku' was
given to him by Delhi State coach Ajit Chaudhary. Cute no?
3. Kohli made the fastest century (in 52 balls) by
any Indian batsman in ODIs against Australia in Jaipur on 16 October 2013. He's
broken several other records too in the last few years!
4. Virat Kohli loves his tattoos. He's gotten
himself inked four times, but his favourite tattoo is the one of a samurai
warrior.
5. Virat Kohli's dad Prem (a criminal lawyer by
profession) passed away in December 2006 during Delhi's crucial Ranji trophy
tie against Karnataka. Though he was torn, Virat decided not to back down and
batted anyway as this was his Ranji debut.
6. So get this; in 2012, Virat Kohli was named one
of the 10 Best Dressed International Men in a list that included US President
Barack Obama. We have to admit the cricketer has one heck of a wardrobe!
7. An advertiser's favourite, endorsing over a
dozen brands already, Virat is now rumoured to be part of the prestigious Rs
100-crore brand endorsement club. *whistles*
8. The Delhi boy is such a heartthrob; he's even
gotten letters written in blood from girls. But no, he's not boasting about
'em. Kohli's actually pretty weirded out by the whole thing.
9. Guess who was Virat Kohli's first crush?
Karisma Kapoor
10. Virat enjoys delectable cuisines while he
travels across the globe, but when he's home, he still wants his mom's famous
mutton biryani and kheer
