#1 Beating security at the stadium to click a photo with Virat Kohli

Last year, Sri Lanka visited India for an ICC World Test Championship series. The second match of the series took place at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Kohli has a massive fan following in the city because he plays for the Bangalore-based franchise in the IPL.

He returned to the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium after a long time to play in that Test match. Some crazy fans could not control themselves and went past the security to click selfies and photos with Kohli. The fans were later arrested.


#2 A kid leaves his exam preparations to watch Virat Kohli play

IPL 2022 was the first season of the Indian Premier League to take place in front of fans in India after 2019. Thousands of fans attended the matches live at the venues.

Generally, the final exams of students take place during the first phase of the IPL, but a young Virat Kohli fan skipped his exam preparations to watch his favorite player play for the Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL 2022.


#3 Waiting for 71st century to get married

The entire cricket universe waited a lot for Kohli's 71st century in international cricket. The star Indian cricketer smacked his 70th ton in November 2019 but failed to touch triple figures in any innings in 2020 and 2021.
