Virat Kohli is going through a superb run of form in international cricket. The veteran batter now only plays one format for India, ODIs, and has been in sublime form since the South Africa series. In his last five ODI innings, Kohli has slammed two centuries and three fifties with his most recent innings being the 93 against New Zealand in Vadodara on Sunday (January 11).

Kohli generates stupendous buzz on social media and it doesn't always have to be about his cricketing achievements. After all, he is married to Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma and the pair has often been the eye candy of social media in different aspects. Therefore, anything that Kohli does can go viral on social media, even if it is a very old post or reply.

An old reply from Kohli, dated October 23, 2011, has resurfaced due to the antics of a random user on X and has gone viral again. The post from Kohli is a casual reply to a post put by popular actress-singer-model Shibani Akhtar, then known as Shibani Dandekar. In 2022, Shibani married actor-director Farhan Akhtar and is now known as Shibani Akhtar.

Coming to Shibani's post, it was about tourism and wanting to travel to Spain, a very generic post in which she was interacting with her followers. Kohli's response to the post was very straight and random. "hello stranger. hope ur good :)" read Kohli's message and it has now resurfaced thanks to a repost by a random user.

Social media has reacted with a host of memes and funny replies that are bound to tickle your funny bone. Fortunately, there are no malicious responses on view and that is good to see, given that social media can be a nasty place in such matters.
