There are special fans of Virat Kohli ?in every nook and corner in the country. Guwahati, too had one such die-hard fan who gifted the Indian captain a unique portrait which he made using old and discar??ded mobile phones.

The fan, named Rahul, revealed that he took three days and three nights to make the portrait. Kohli saw ?the portrait and autographed it after meeting the fan at the team hotel, much to the delight of the young fan.

A video of Kohli’s meeting the fan was uploaded by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on their social media platforms. “Portrait of @virat.kohli using old phones. How is this for fan love!” the BCCI captioned the video.

Meanwhile, the first of the three-match T20I series between I??ndia and Sri Lanka was abandoned due to heavy rain in Guwahati. This result will be a massive disappointment for the Assam Cricket Asso?ciation (ACA) and, of course, the vast crowd that appeared for the game.

On Sunday night, the groundsmen used a vacuum cleaner, a steam iron, and a hair-dryer in their effort to dry up the damp patches on the track.

T??he abandonment happened in front of dignitaries, including Assam Governor Jagdish Mukhi, Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal, and Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb.

After making an International debut in 2014 against Australia in Tests, KL Rahul has scored centuries in all the formats of the game. His hunger for runs and his c??alm headed personality makes him one of the most exciting talents in Indian cr??icket.

Now, apart from cricket, he is turning into?? a stylish icon as well. Rahul loves to sport different ?hairstyles in different seasons and the tattoos inked on his body are enhancing his connect with the youth.

Recently, the Karnataka lad featured in an episode of ‘What The Duck’ hosted by stand-up comedian Vikram Sathaye, where he told stories from his childhood and recounted instances from th?e past that very few know about.

During the episode, he recalled times when his mother Rajeshwari would look at him and jokingly wonder what went wrong with her? upbringing. He also shared the two different stories of his parents regarding the origin of his name.

Firstly, Rahul said his mother told him that when she was pregnant with him, she was watching a movie featuring Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan, in which the actor’s screen name was Rahul. Inspired by it, she decided to name her son the same.

He also revealed the second version of the story – one from his father’s side. As Rahul explained, his father was a huge fan of former Indian greats Gundappa Vishwanath and Sunil Gavaskar and even used to? go to?? the stadium to watch them bat.

During one of the matches KL’s father was following, the commentators said that Gavaskar’s son was named Rohan. But poor father messed up the two names- ‘Rahul and Rohan’ in his head and was happy to name his son Rahul, thinking that he was following in the footsteps of Sunny, and was ensuring a cricket connection.
