When Virat Kohli turned 31: A beautiful poem dedicated to Indian cricket Captain by his biggest fan:
When Virat Kohli turns a year wiser, his biggest fan of the charismatic Indian skipper deciphered a beautiful poem as a tribute to the maverick among the Men In Blue.
- We all know Virat Kohli has been the flagbearer of elegant and fearless batting across all formats of the gentlemen's game
- Virat is entitled among the top batsmen in the world across all formats and has a plethora of records under his belt.
He is considered as one of the most successful batsmen India has ever produced in the modern era, Kohli has been the flagbearer of elegant and fearless batting across all formats of the gentlemen's game.
Cutely nicknamed Chiku and famously known as Run Machine. In 2008 the right-handed batsman marked his international against Sri Lanka.
Here's the poem on Virat Kohli :
Ruling the world of cricket, sitting in the throne as the one true king
'King Kohli' is what they call you, if cricket was a circus you are master of the ring
Those cover drives of yours, a glance is enough to know who you are as a batsman
The ease with which you finish off a chase, why wouldn't one call you cricket's craftsman
How far have you come, from the days of gorging butter chicken
Sacrificed even those parathas, making every fan wonder what cooks in your kitchen
Only you know the cost of this success after all real cricket starts after the coin toss
Not everyone knows the depth of victories, only those who have suffered the biggest of loss
The 9 tattoo of yours, narrates the anecdotes of this journey
Little did your 15-year-old self know, one day you'll set benchmarks in every tourney
You sit among the greats, with the biggest glory days still to come
Inspiring millions, be it those living in skyscrapers or the ones idolising you in slum
When this chapter is over, you'll be remembered as someone who made scoring runs look like an art
Bangalore, Cape Town or Adelaide, the chants which will live forever are Virat, Virat, Virat
