Virender Sehwag suggests Virat Kohli to change his name

Former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag has been a sensation on Twitter. He is known for his sarcasm and pun-heavy tweets. He is best known for his unique birthday wishes and the way he trolls his fellow cricketers. Be it on the field or off the field, Sehwag has been a complete entertainer. Another interesting feature to note is his ardent support for the current Indian Test captain Virat Kohli.

Time and again, Sehwag has come in support of his former Delhi team mate. He never misses an opportunity to praise the young Indian batsman. On most occasions, he takes to social media – his home ground – to write some pun heavy praise words for Kohli. He did it yet again.

This time, the former Indian opener wants Virat to change his name. He suggested Kohli to get an advertisement printed in the newspaper for a name change. He wants the Indian middle-order batsman to change his name to ‘badal’, which means cloud. The reason will tickle the funny bones of some people and some will be amused at the pun used by Virender Sehwag this time.

He believes that Virat Kohli is always all over the opposition just the way the clouds are spread across the sky. In a very cheeky tweet, Sehwag wrote, “Kohli ko paper me name change Ad daalna chahiye. He should call himself Badal ,aka Cloud. Har waqt Badal ki tarah Chaaye rehte hain,Kohli !” Well, a reply from Virat Kohli is much awaited. It will only be interesting to see if the Indian Test captain comes up with a hilarious reply too.

Virat Kohli has been in a scintillating form this year. He has plundered runs at will in all the three formats of the game. Even in the ongoing series against England, Kohli has led from the front and has emerged as the leading run-getter thus far. India will take on England in the fifth and the final Test on December 16 in Chennai. Kohli will look to extend his dominion over the visitors in the Chennai Test.
