Former India cricket captain Virat Kohli has declared that soccer legend Cristiano Ronaldo is his sporting GOAT (best of all time), and the reason is not as you might anticipate.
The 35-year-old Indian cricketer is a true superstar in his sport, having excelled in all three game types while helping India to success in each.
He is now absent from England’s five-match Test series against India due to personal issues, according to Sportskeeda.
Meanwhile, the 39-year-old Portuguese soccer star is one of the best to ever play the beautiful game.
He is the only male player to score over 850 goals for club and country since making his debut two decades ago, and he is still going strong.
In this video interview posted by Team Bluerising on Instagram, Kohli explained why Ronaldo is his sporting GOAT:
“I know a lot of people might not agree with me. But for me, it’s Cristiano Ronaldo. Sporting GOAT, not in different disciplines. What he’s doing at his age is not human, playing every 3-4 days. He’s still doing what he’s doing, so it’s pretty amazing.”
Kohli, like his sporting GOAT, is at the top of his game, scoring hundreds in all three formats.
He has a record 50 centuries in ODIs and 80 overall hundreds, surpassing only Sachin Tendulkar in all-time lost.
