Popular American YouTuber IShowSpeed, well-known for his unwavering support for Cristiano Ronaldo, recently had a rather entertaining encounter with Brazilian football legend Ronaldo Nazario on India Cricket icon Virat Kohli during his Brazilian tour.
The 18-year-old, famous for his humorous content, surprised Nazario with a question about cricket icon Virat Kohli, asking, “Do you know Virat Kohli?” Nazario’s simple response, “Who?” added a moment of confusion.
Undeterred, IShowSpeed quickly showed Nazario a picture of Kohli, playfully remarking, “He is the best, better than Babar Azam. I just wanna show you a picture of him.” Nazario, recognizing Kohli, prompted an enthusiastic response from IShowSpeed, declaring, “Yeah, he is the GOAT.” During the 2023 ICC ODI World Cup, IShowSpeed openly expressed his massive admiration for Kohli, even making a trip to India to meet the cricketing sensation in person.
The IND vs AFG T20I series holds significance as it marks Virat Kohli’s return to T20Is after a hiatus following the T20 World Cup semi-final loss to England in November 2022. During this period, he opted to step away from the format to concentrate on the lengthier versions of the game, with India participating in the World Test Championship final and the ODI World Cup in 2023. Despite his comeback to the team, Kohli is set to miss the first encounter of the series.
