In a heartwarming display, CSK debutant Sameer Rizvi gestured towards Kohli after the post-match handshake. Photographs showed the youngster respectfully removing his cap to greet Kohli, whom he called a “forever legend” on social media.

Such a humble act of recognition for an opposition player underscored Kohli’s influence transcending rivalries. Just days ago, RCB women’s player Shreyanka Patil had expressed joy at Kohli acknowledging her, reflecting his inspiration to many.
