New Delhi: Virat Kohli’s name is at the top among cricketers in Google’s list of most searched topics in its entire 25-year-long history. Others who have appeared on the list in the past include players like Sachin Tendulkar, MS Dhoni, Rohit Sharma etc but it is Kohli who emerged as the ‘most searched cricketer’ in Google’s history.
When it came to the most searched athlete on the list, however, Kohli wasn’t the man at the top. It was Real Madrid and Manchester United legend Cristiano Ronaldo, who continues going strong even at the age of 38 at Saudia Arabian club Al-Nassr.
Ronaldo also went on to defeat some of the biggest players in the game, especially his arch-rival Lionel Messi.
What’s interesting, however, is that even Kohli is a bigger fan of Ronaldo than he is of Messi. In multiple interviews, the Indian cricket star revealed how much he admires the Portuguese footballer.
“No trophy or any title can take anything away from what you’ve done in this sport and for sports fans around the world,” Kohli wrote on Instagram.
When it comes to the “most searched sport”, football finished at the top.
