What if we ask you to guess the most searched cricketer over the internet in Pakistan? What if we then give you the hint that the most searched cricketer over the internet is an Indian? Well yes you’ve now guessed it right.
Virat Kohli is unarguably the best batsman in modern day cricket and 2017 has been his year. He got the most runs in ODIs this year and has piled up 2818 runs across formats this year which is the third highest in a calendar year.
He has a crazy following in India but he’s the boss across the border too. Virat has a mammoth fan following even in Pakistan which is just amazing.
Between December 2016 and December 2017, Virat Kohli has been searched for by people in Pakistan much more than their own captain and the key elements of the Pakistan national team.

Can you believe it? Not Sarfaraz and neither Mohammad Amir but the Indian captain is the most searched cricketer over the internet in Pakistan.
It’s sad that India and Pakistan don’t play bilateral cricket because cricket between India and Pakistan is always a great delight for cricket fans on both sides of the border. Seeing people in Pakistan love Kohli so much is just fabulous.
