There was a time when people hated Virat Kohli for his 'arrogance.' However, the Indian cricket team captain won their love back with his amazing batting skills. You will hardly find a cricket lover who is not a fan of Kohli’s batting. Kohli is regarding as one of the best batsmen to have played the game of cricket and he is not finished yet! That very much tells us about Kohli’s calibre as a batsman! Meanwhile, a video is doing rounds on social media, and if you are a Kohli fan, then you won’t believe how the Indian skipper and the finest batsman of contemporary times has handled a ‘mean’ comment.
"He (Kohli) is an overrated batsman. Nothing seems special in his batting. I enjoy watching English and Australian batsman more than these Indians," a cricket follower from India wrote. The comment was read by Kohli and it apparently irked him.

In comes Kohli’s shocking response! Believe it or not, the Indian skipper suggested the cricket lover that it is better to leave the country if he is not fond of his batting and prefers to watch overseas batsmen. Now that is intolerance in the purest form, we say!
Here's the video:

"I don't think you should live in India. Go and live somewhere else. Why are you living in our country and loving other countries? I don't mind you not liking me. I don't you should live in our country and like other's thing. Get your priorities sorted,” said Kohli in a video which is now going viral.

Kohli’s response has apparently annoyed fans as well. One of the Twitter users wrote, “Married in a foreign country, supports foreign countries in other sports, plays a sport originating from a foreign country instead of playing kabaddi, talks in a foreign language many times, wears foreign dresses. Is he in his right mind speaking those words now?”
