Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh is all praises for star skipper Virat Kohli, saying he has changed the face of Indian cricket forever.
Ranveer, who on Sunday made his commentary debut with Star Sports alongside cricket stars Sunil Gavaskar and Virender Sehwag for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019, shared a photograph of himself along with Kohli on social media.

He captioned it: “Ive been a die-hard fan of Indian cricket since childhood. Invested so much emotion into our beloved team. Willing and wanting them to be the undisputed best in the world. And then, there was VIRAT KOHLI.”
The 33-year-old further added that he has “witnessed a brash boy evolve into the very embodiment of class”.
“Displaying a rare brand of ferocity and passionate expression, he changed the face of Indian cricket forever. He’s well on his way to being hailed as the greatest of all time.
“Leading our country like a true alpha warrior,” Ranveer wrote. He was seen sharing a casual conversation and giving the Indian batsman a congratulatory hug after India beat Pakistan, yet again, on Sunday.
The Padmaavat star also shared a series of photographs along with cricketers including Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, Shikhar Dhawan, Harbhajan Singh, Brian Lara, Virendra Sehwag, K.L. Rahul and Hardik Pandya.
Ranveer is currently tied up with 83, a film based on India’s historic victory at the 1983 Cricket World Cup where he will be seen essaying the role of legendary batsman, Kapil Dev.
