Kohli Picks Gayle Over Rohit — Internet Reacts!
Virat Kohli set social media on fire today by picking Chris Gayle as a better T20 opener than Rohit Sharma in RCB’s “This or That” video. Kohli’s rationale: Gayle’s record with RCB — 3,163 runs in 7 seasons including his legendary 175* in 2013 — makes him the finest T20 opener he has personally played alongside. Rohit Sharma (12,248 T20 runs, 8 hundreds) vs Gayle (14,562 T20 runs, 22 hundreds) — the numbers back Kohli up statistically!
