‘Greatest Of All Time’ – Netizens use GOAT icon for Virat Kohli on Twitter

Virat Kohli fans have taken Twitter by storm by trending the former Indian skipper’s name with the ‘GOAT’ icon. One of the greatest batters to have graced the game, Kohli has been nothing short of a nightmare for bowlers in all three formats of the game. Be it playing marathon knocks in Test matches or scoring quick runs in T20Is, Kohli has tackled every challenge which came his way.

Owing to his brilliance over the 22 yards, fans felicitated him with the ‘GOAT’ icon and celebrated the occasion with heartwarming posts. For the unversed, GOAT is the abbreviation for Greatest of all time. As the 33-year-old got awarded with the prominent symbol, fans celebrated the occasion by lavishing massive praises on the talismanic cricketer. In fact, #ViratKohli𓃵 became one of the top trends on Twitter.

Virat Kohli – A force to reckon with 

Speaking of Kohli’s journey in international cricket, the Delhi-born player made his Team India debut in August 2008, months after taking India to the U19 World Cup title. With the likes of Yuvraj Singh, Gautam Gambhir and MS Dhoni being in the India’s batting order, Kohli had to make most of his chances. He embraced the challenge and soon became the vital cog of the Indian team.

‘When the going gets tough, the tough get going’ – it won’t be wrong to say that this proverb perfectly suits Kohli. After all, the right-handed batter has a special ability of fighting the odds and his best gets unleashed in crunch situations. Besides being a prolific run-scorer, Kohli is also among the finest Indian captains.

He led the side from the front and took his team to one memorable triumph after another. In fact, his batting numbers went to a different level altogether while captaining India. Notably, his tally of seven double centuries is most by a captain in Test cricket. Meanwhile, Kohli doesn’t lead India in any format now but continues to be a vital part of of the batting line-up.

Meanwhile, let’s look at how Twitterati celebrated Virat Kohli’s ‘GOAT’ icon:
