The video is seen to be doctored by using Artificial Intelligence. In the video, Virat is also seen sending a dig at young cricketer Shubman Gill.
“When we returned from Australia, I knew what it takes to be successful in international cricket. I have been watching Shubman Gill closely. He is a talented cricketer, but there is a difference between showing promise and becoming a big player. He has good technique, but he is not ahead of us.
“People often talk about the next Virat Kohli, but there is only one Virat Kohli. I have played against the toughest bowlers, scored runs in challenging conditions, and have been consistent for over a decade.
“If I don’t perform, I sit outside and clap all day. In Indian cricket, there is God, and then there is me. Gill has a long way to go before reaching the top level.”
