Virat Kohli Trolls Sachin Tendulkar, Internet Returns The Favour

... because No One says no to God.

So... this happened.

Hey @imVkohli, I want to play!

Referring to Virat Kohli’s new ‘co-owner’ status of IPTL team The UAE Royals, Sachin Tendulkar seemed to ask for a new career.

Not sure you have what it takes @sachin_rt paaji!

— Virat Kohli (@imVkohli) September 11, 2015

Virat Kohli though, much in the habit of denying cricket legends (read: Sangakkara) their wish these days, forgot this was Sachin Tendulkar he was hitting the reply button to.

And so... this followed.

It was all of course just part of a publicity gimmick by IPTL team The UAE Royals whose chief sponsor, Musafir.com, is endorsed by Sachin.
