Virat Kohli considered the GOAT of cricket is currently creating a buzz on the internet with his “quarantine” look. Netizens are reminded of The Professor from the popular series “La casa de papel” aka the Money Heist as the viral photo shows Virat Kohli sporting long hair, a thick beard, and glasses that complete the look.

The photo was widely circulated on Twitter and many fans assumed that it was Kohli’s ICC World Test Championship Final 2021 look where India is set to face New Zealand at The Rose Bowl, Southampton this June.

Netizens were quick to react and make memes.

Before you all get hyped up, lets us break it to you that the picture is photoshopped.

A user shared a screengrab from a sponsored partnership deal advert of Kohli with an e-commerce website that was used to photoshop before being shared on Twitter.
