Pakistan Star Abrar Ahmed, Who Mocked Subman Gill, Shares Unmissable Post For Virat Kohli

Pakistan star Abrar Ahmed, who was criticised by many for his send-off to India batter Shubman Gill during the two teams' Champions Trophy clash, has paid a glorious tribute to Virat Kohli. With 'King Kohli' set to feature in his 300th ODI for the Indian team, in the Champions Trophy match against New Zealand on Sunday, Abrar wrote a glorious post for the iconic batter, calling him his childhood hero. "Bowling to my childhood hero Virat Kohli. Grateful for his appreciation-his greatness as a cricketer is only matched by his humility as a person.

In the Indo-Pak showdown in the Champions Trophy, it was Rohit Sharma's team that emerged victorious, with Kohli hitting the winning runs as he reached his 51st hundred in the format. For Pakistan, in another insipid display, Abrar was the only shining light, producing figures of 1/28.
