Virat Kohli is the most google searched sportsperson

No surprises here. India's Test captain, her favourite cricketing hero, Virat Kohli tops the list. The man who is as entertaining on the cricket field as he is off it, Kohli had a watershed 2015. While it was not the best of years with the willow for Kohli as he made only two Test centuries in 15 innings and two ODI centuries in 20 matches. But under his captaincy in Tests, India rose from No. 6 in Tests to No. 2, riding on back-to-back series wins against Sri Lanka and South Africa.
He also reached 8 million Twitter followers - currently only a few thousand behind Sachin Tendulkar.
But virat surprized and tweeted
"Can't believe I am the most searched! I must be good at hiding; just kidding. Thank you for your love. Feel blessed"
