Virat Kohli may not always keep track of the records that he continues to accumulate on the pitch but it seems as though he keeps track of his fans on Twitter. How else then do you explain his Tweet upon crossing 11 million followers on the site.

Despite the fact that he is incredibly busy, scoring bucketloads of runs on the pitch, he still finds time to tweet to his fans. And the best part is that it isn’t always about his teammates but about various Indians who have done well in sports. A testament to that is his recent tweet congratulating Saina Nehwal.

If he keeps improving at the current rate, there is no reason why he shouldn’t take the No.1 spot soon.

A big thank you to all 11 Million on Twitter. Your support and love means a lot. Grateful always pic.twitter.com/g2mW6EgEyJ
