Ahead of his birthday on November 5, cricket superstar Virat Kohli decided to get a haircut for the special occasion. However, the star batter showed the love and passion he has for the game, as he was seen watching the New Zealand vs Pakistan match while getting his hair cut. Kohli has said multiple times in the past that he doesn’t get bored of the game and can talk to anyone about cricket for hours.
The intense New Zealand vs Pakistan match was a run-fest at Kohli’s very own M Chinnaswamy Stadium, and the batter did not want to miss the chance to watch one of the best matches of the World Cup 2023.
The interesting thing was Kohli watching Pakistan skipper Babar Azam in full flow as he and Fakhar Zaman put on a masterclass to take Pakistan home.
Kohli and Babar have always shown respect towards each other.
“The best thing I like about Virat is how he can get the team out of difficult situations and score runs against tough bowling. This is what I try to learn from him,” the Pakistan skipper said last month, showing the immense respect he has for the modern great.

Virat Kohli gets ready for his birthday match
Kohli will take the field at the Eden Gardens against South Africa to level his idol Sachin Tendulkar’s record. The Delhi cricketer came close to hitting his 49th ton against Sri Lanka and levelling the record before he was caught for 88.
Now, on his birthday, with 70000 fans behind him, Kohli will be confident to not only level the Little Master but also to top the most runs column in the World Cup 2023.
