“King Kohli” chants took over the top trends on social media with several Bollywood stars leading the way and hailing the sportsman for his stellar performance.In a series of tweets, Instagram posts, and stories, celebrities from Vicky Kaushal to Riteish Deshmukh, Anupam Kher to Ayushmann Khurrana, praised the boys in blue for their nailbiting match that ended in a victory.
“Whatever the situation, whatever the position, one thing that has been consistent with every Indian batter is they have this “I got this!” vibe going,” tweeted Ayushmann.
Vicky, on the other hand, posted an edited photo of Virat with a crown on his head.
Also joining the celebrity cheer squad, was Virat’s wife who took to her handle to say, “Always proud of you.”
Virat became the first Indian batter to complete 3,000 runs across all ICC white-ball tournaments on Sunday. He accomplished this feat during the ICC Cricket World Cup match against New Zealand at Dharamshala, where he scored 95 of 104 balls. His knock consisted of eight fours and two sixes. He missed on his record-equaling 49th ODI century, which would have helped him equal Sachin Tendulkar’s record.
