Kohli wins Pakistan fans hearts

Both on and off the field, Virat Kohli continues to win hearts. If it’s performances with the bat are not enough, Kohli’s off-field warm conduct is earning him a lot of fans, both in and outside India. This time, even in Pakistan.

Kohli wouldn’t have been a hero of sorts in the neighbouring country. Why? Blame his terrific run with the bat against the arch-rivals. May it be his heroic innings of 183 in Asia Cup 2012, where the Right hander ensured India chase the target of 330 comfortably.

After team India registered their first Test win outside the sub-continent under the captaincy of Virat Kohli, they are all set for the second Test to be played in Kingston.

Virat who scored his first Test double hundred during the opening Test in Antigua, had a special message for one of his millions of fans in Pakistani umpire Aleem Dar’s kid.

Hasan Dar sent a video to his idol through his father, who is among the team of umpires officiating in the ongoing Test series in West Indies.

To which, Indian Test captain responded by sending a motivational message to Dar junior, advising the budding cricketer to keep working hard and keep faith in his dream.

Virat also promised to send an autographed bat and appealed to meet him next time when his father officiates an Indian game.
