Virat Kohli: For Virat Kohli, 2022 will go down in history as the year he broke India’s 1021-day century drought and achieved his first T20I century. To claim that Kohli’s dominance was restricted to on-field competitions would be incorrect. The great Indian batsman currently appears to have exceeded all of his Indian teammates.
Virat Kohli’s annual income will make your jaw drop
The former captain of India reportedly became the highest-paid cricketer in the nation in 2022 thanks to a commercial agreement for Rs 256.52 crore. According to a report, Kohli is the highest-paid athlete in India with a net income of $33.9 million. Kohli is 61st overall among the world’s highest-paid athletes.
Fans and cricket enthusiasts hailed Kohli on Twitter as soon as the report gained widespread attention. A user wrote, “He is truly the king.” Meanwhile another user wrote, “Virat deserves Rs 25,000 crore not Rs 256 crore for his captaincy and the runs he has scored for the nation. No one has done but yes as a fan of Virat Kohli, I want him to play all formats and score Huge.”

After hitting the three-figure mark against Afghanistan during the Asia Cup in September 2022, Kohli also ended his century drought in international cricket. It ended up being his first century in T20I cricket as well.
