The narrative takes an intriguing turn with Virat Kohli’s openly declared admiration for Cristiano Ronaldo over Lionel Messi. Kohli, the star of Indian cricket, has consistently expressed profound respect for the Portuguese football maestro in various interviews. In a noteworthy Instagram post, Kohli conveyed, “No trophy or any title can take anything away from what you’ve done in this sport and for sports fans around the world.”
This message was a tribute to Ronaldo following his team’s exit from the FIFA World Cup 2022, underscoring the mutual respect shared between these two sporting icons from different disciplines.
As Google’s retrospective unveils the most searched figures, it serves as a testament to the enduring global impact of sports personalities like Virat Kohli and Cristiano Ronaldo, whose influence transcends their respective games.
