Italian Footballer Agata Centasso Trolled After Wishing Virat Kohli on His Birthday
“@imVkohli, happy birthday from a fan in Italy. All the best to you.” However, her gesture was met with trolling from some social media users.
Virat Kohli, who turned 36 on Tuesday, continues to enjoy immense popularity globally. From his early days as a young star who led India to the ICC U19 World Cup victory in 2008 to becoming one of the game's greatest modern cricketers, Kohli has built a legacy defined by consistency, fitness, and aggression. His achievements have made him a fan favorite, and his brand is widely recognized, often used by the ICC to promote cricket in new regions.
On his birthday, Kohli received messages from fans across the world, including Agata Isabella Centasso, an Italian footballer who plays in Serie B. In her post on X (formerly Twitter), Centasso, who describes herself as a social worker with a passion for sports and India, wrote: “@imVkohli, happy birthday from a fan in Italy. All the best to you.” However, her gesture was met with trolling from some social media users.
Virat Kohli’s career, spanning over 16 years, has seen him break numerous records and establish himself as a cricketing icon. He is not only known for his stylish batting but also his leadership, mental toughness, and his ability to lead India in some of their most historic victories. Over 118 Test matches, Kohli has scored 9,040 runs at an average of 47.83, with 29 centuries to his name, making him one of India's greatest-ever players.
Despite the trolling, Agata's message reflects the widespread admiration Kohli enjoys across borders, from athletes in various sports to fans around the globe.
