Virat Kohli is Ronaldo of cricket, says Bravo

-

West Indian all-rounder Dwayne Bravo on Monday heaped praise on India and Royal Challenger­s Bangalore skipper Virat Kolhi and equated him with legendary footballer Cristiano Ronaldo.

“It’s (equation with Virat is) good. Virat actually played under-19 (cricket) with my younger brother Darren and I always tell my brother that Virat is a person he shall look up to, I am not saying that because I am here,” 34-year-old Bravo, who plays for Chennai Super Kings in the IPL, said here.

“I actually asked Virat to talk to my brother personally about batting, about cricket. When I see Virat, I see Christiano Ronaldo of cricket.

“For me as a player to play against and to watch him play when he represents India, even RCB, I admire the talent, the passion he has for the game, for the sport when he plays. So hats off to him and he deserve all the achievemen­t,” he added.

Bravo performed on a special song after New Era launched the signature headwear collection designed and conceptual­ized by Kohli himself.
