According to an Indian cricket fan residing in Australia named Kunal Gandhi, had in an interview claimed that he was the one to first use the word \u2018King\u2019 to describe Kohli.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring India\u2019s tour of Australia in 2014, I wanted to gift him a jersey but did not want to write only his name without an adequate adjective. He was in form then and suddenly the word King came to my mind and I presented him with a jersey with his name King Kohli on it. He gave his autograph on the jersey and people have started calling him King Kohli,\u201d he claimed.<\/p>\n

It is pertinent to mention here that Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma the power couple were blessed with their second child, a baby boy, last month.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
