Virat Kohli may be one of the most popular cricketers ever but Brazilian football great Ronaldo failed to remember him by his name.
In a video shared by YouTuber Speed, he asked Ronaldo about Virat and here's how the discussion went:
"Do you know Virat Kohli?" Speed asked.
"Who?" replied Ronaldo, a former FIFA World Cup winner.
"Virat Kohli, from India," Speed reply.
"No," said Ronaldo.
"You don't know Virat Kohli!" a surprised Speed said.
"What is he? A player?" Ronaldo replied then.
"He is a cricket player" Speed said.
"He is not very popular in here," said Ronaldo.
"Yeah, yeah. he is like the best. He is better than Babar Azam. You have never seen this dude?" Speed shows Ronaldo Virat Kohli's picture.
"Yeah," replied Ronaldo, who recognised him by the picture.
Despite having played his last T20I way back in November 2022, Virat is still the leading run-scorer in the shortest format of the game. He has smashed 4008 runs in 115 matches at an average of 52.73, with a strike rate of almost 138.
