If I woke up as Ronaldo one day, I’d have my brain scanned: Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli

Former India captain Virat Kohli stated that if he awoke, he would scan his head like world-renowned player Cristiano Ronaldo.

Kohli has always admired the Portuguese work ethic and looks up to him in a variety of ways. The right-hander made these remarks in a behind-the-scenes video shared by Royal Challengers Banglore when asked who his favourite athlete of all time was and how he would react if he woke up one day looking like him.

“It’s Cristiano Ronaldo!” “If I woke up as Ronaldo, I’d do a brain scan to see where all that mental strength comes from (smiles),” Virat Kohli said. RCB captain Faf du Plessis and Mohammad Siraj were also featured in the BTS video.

When asked the same question, Faf named Tennis legend Roger Federer as his all-time favourite athlete because of his calm and composed demeanour, and he said that if he awoke to be Federer, he’d look at his Rolex collection.

Fast bowler Siraj, who is also known as Ronaldo, has stated that if he awoke like him someday, he would like to open a hospital for those in need in order to contribute and help society.

Bangalore is coming off a nail-biter against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), while Rajasthan is coming off a 23-run win against the Mumbai Indians (MI).

In the battle of the Royals, RR will rely on Buttler and Samson to continue scoring runs, while RCB will rely on captain Faf du Plessis and batting great Virat Kohli.

Kohli was outstanding as captain of both the Indian team and his Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise, Royal Challengers Bangalore. RCB had released a video in which Kohli, Mohammed Siraj, and captain Faf du Plessis discussed their favourite athletes, best and worst cricket moments, and other topics. Kohli and Siraj chose Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese legend, as their favourite athlete, while Du Plessis chose Swiss maestro Roger Federer.
