WATCH: Star India batter Virat Kohli gives sleepless night to his NBA fan during ODI World Cup 2023

In the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023, star India batter Virat Kohli is running in red-hot form. The 34-year-old batting legend is currently the second-highest run-scorer for India in the ongoing tournament. He has scored 354 runs in six innings at an average of 88.50. However, Kohli’s batting performance has given his fans sleepless nights around the globe.

In a viral video, a Virat Kohli fan from the United States of America can be seen wishing him luck for the tournament while revealing Kohli’s impact on his sleep cycle. In the viral video, Vivek Ranadive, the owner of NBA team Sacramento Kings, revealed his fondness for Kohli. He also shared a special jersey of the team exclusively made for Kohli.

“Hey Virat! Congratulations! You guys won again. And you’re really messing with my sleep because I live in Northern California, and I wake up really early every day to watch the boys in blue play. You keep winning and winning, and today you beat England. I own the Sacramento Kings, and I got your own shirt for you”, says Vivek.

Can Virat Kohli break Sachin Tendulkar’s record in the CWC23?

In the ongoing tournament, Kohli is chasing two things, with the trophy being his priority and the record of most ODI centuries being secondary. The legendary batter has scored 48 ODI centuries and is just one behind Sachin Tendulakar’s record of 49 ODI tons. In the remainder of the tournament, fans will expect Virat to smash two more centuries to help India lift the ODI World Cup and cross Sachin’s record too.

It’s worth noting that on November 5, Kohli will celebrate his 35th birthday. On a very similar day, India will be taking on South Africa at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata. The day will be celebrated by the Cricket Association of Bengal, as they have decided to distribute more than 70,000 Virat Kohli masks to celebrate his birthday. The board has also ordered a special gift for Kohli and a special cake for him too.
