Shubman Gill Leads as Virat Kohli Misses Top 10 in India’s 2023 Google Searches
In an unexpected twist, Virat Kohli, the globally acclaimed Indian cricketer and the most-followed Asian on Instagram with over 265 million followers, surprisingly failed to secure a spot in the top 10 most searched personalities on Google in India for 2023. Despite his massive social media presence, Kohli was outpaced by other individuals in the national Google searches.
The Top 10 Most Googled Personalities in India for the year featured a notable dominance of cricketing figures, with Shubman Gill emerging as the most searched cricketer in the country, securing the second position overall. The list also included cricketers such as Mohammed Shami and Suryakumar Yadav. Surprisingly, the top spot was claimed by Bollywood actress Kiara Advani, offering a diverse mix of personalities, including international figures like David Beckham.
Despite missing out on the 2023 list, Virat Kohli’s standing remains impressive. He continues to hold the record as the most searched cricketer in Google’s 25-year history, underscoring his enduring popularity. On the cricket field, Kohli continues to excel, making notable contributions in the ODI World Cup and gearing up for the upcoming Test tour of South Africa.
Taking a historical perspective, Google’s 25-year history has consistently seen Virat Kohli as the most searched cricketer, while football sensation Cristiano Ronaldo takes the overall title as the most searched athlete. Kohli’s admiration for Ronaldo highlights the interconnectedness of sports stars across various disciplines.
With an impressive record of 26,532 runs at an average of 54.36, Kohli holds the fourth position on the list of all-time leading run-getters in international cricket.
