Indian cricket team's vice-captain Virat Kohli is not only scoring on the pitch, but scoring with his style quotient off it too.

Sporting a newly-done mohawk hairstyle which resembles the one of football star Cristiano Ronaldo, Kohli was seen enjoying his time here on Friday ahead of India's Pool B World Cup encounter against South Africa on February 22.

His knock of 107 powered India to set a stiff target of 301 runs for arch-rivals Pakistan in the quadrennial event opener on Sunday. The Indian team clinched the match by 76 runs without any major hiccup as the bowlers bundled out Pakistan for 224.

India's middle order mainstay Kohli previously impressed the fashion critics with his style statement and his latest hairdo is expected to create a buzz too.

The mohawk also referred to as the Mohican hairstyle came into the limelight through former English footballer David Beckham who sported it in the 2002 FIFA World Cup.

Kohli, who already has several endorsements as a result of his charismatic personality, earlier said he likes to experiment with his looks and tries to sport whatever makes him look good.
