In the city of Manchester, Virat Kohli and Cristiano Ronaldo are gearing up for a tumultuous weekend. On Saturday, when Manchester United host Newcastle United, the Portuguese superstar is likely to make his second Premier League debut. On September 10, Kohli will be in Manchester for India’s final Test against England. So when Lancashire Cricket posted a photo of Virat Kohli on Twitter, asking whether anyone fancied “a joint training session” between the Indian cricket captain and Ronaldo at Old Trafford, fans drooled. “One city, two GOATs,” United said, savoring the moment.
Here it is:
Fans applauded United’s response, many praising Kohli.
One fan speculated that Kohli’s presence could cause havoc in the parking lot for the fifth Test. The parking nightmare is all I see.
“Today I realized Manchester is Red forever,” said another.
A member of the India support staff tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday, therefore Kohli will be hoping to lead India to victory in the last Test.
India leads the five-match series 2-1 and won the fourth by 157 runs.
Rohit Sharma scored 127 from 256 balls at The Oval, giving India a 1-0 lead in the series. Kohli scored a half-century in his team’s first innings.
