Shahid Afridi:
While Shahid Afridi is not a very popular figure in India because of his political stance, he has also supported or praised Virat Kohli on a number of occasions.
In 2019, the former Pakistan skipper had hailed Kohli as a great player and had wished him more success on the cricket pitch. In 2020, he had also revealed that Kohli and Rohit Sharma were his favourite Indian batsmen.
Congratulations @imVkohli You are a great player indeed, wish you continued success, keep entertaining cricket fans all around the world. https://t.co/OoDmlEECcu
