When you talk about Virat Kohli, one word that instantly comes to mind is class. The 36-year-old Indian batting maestro enjoys a massive global fanbase, admired for his exceptional skills, dedication, and work ethic. Kohli has not only dominated the cricketing world with his performances but has also earned the respect of fans across globe.

A recent viral video on social media showcases this admiration, as Pakistani fans were seen chanting "Kohli! Kohli!" outside the National Stadium in Karachi. Among the enthusiastic supporters, one passionate fan proudly wore Kohli’s Royal Challengers Bengaluru jersey, displaying his love for the Indian superstar. Another was heard exclaiming, "Mai hu Virat Kohli!" (I am Virat Kohli!), while another fan stated, "Mai Pakistan se hu, magar Virat Kohli ko support karta hu." (I am from Pakistan, but I support Virat Kohli.)

This overwhelming support for Kohli surfaced following Pakistan's disappointing loss in the ODI tri-series final against New Zealand. Pakistan's star batter Babar Azam struggled throughout the series, managing modest scores of 10, 23, and 29, which left fans disheartened. As the cricketing world gears up for the 2025 Champions Trophy, where Pakistan will host the prestigious tournament, their recent defeat has served as a reality check. 

Meanwhile, the much-anticipated India-Pakistan clash at the Dubai International Stadium on February 23 promises to be another high-voltage encounter, reigniting the historic rivalry.

Virat Kohli’s global influence continues to transcend borders, proving that cricket is truly a sport that unites fans worldwide.
