India cricket fans were treated to a Virat Kohli special as he scored a historic century in the ICC Cricket World Cup semifinal against Kane Williamson-led New Zealand.
The right-handed batter surpassed legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar’s record (49) for most ODI centuries by hitting his 50th ton in the format. His match-winning knock 117-run knock helped the hosts book a place in the final on Sunday.
Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor, who was among the several celebrities watching the game at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium, answered a question on whether he would work on the prolific batter’s biopic.
The ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani‘ star said the cricketer should play himself as he has better looks than several actors.
“If a biopic is made on the right-handed batter, then he should play the role of himself in it because he looks better than many actors & his fitness is also very good.
