Former Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper Virat Kohli thinks the West Indian legend, Sir Vivian Richards, would have bossed the Indian Premier League (IPL) had he played in the tournament. Kohli has often talked about his admiration for Richards and called him and Sachin Tendulkar the greatest of all time.
He once again did the same through his Instagram Story by uploading a video where Richards can be seen talking about his love for T20 cricket. Kohli shared the video with the caption: “The real boss“.
“I would have loved that [playing in franchise-based T20 competitions]. I think it would have been too powerful with the bats today,” Richards gave his views on T20 cricket. The screenshot of Kohli’s Story has been doing rounds on social media platforms.
Kohli’s activities on social media often grab fans’ attention and this time also the fans reacted. Check a few reactions below:
