Virat Kohli Like Sparks Meltdown: RCB Legend’s Instagram Activity Goes Viral

Social Media in Frenzy

A routine social media scroll has landed Indian cricket icon Virat Kohli in another online storm. The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) batting mainstay allegedly liked a photograph of German-South African model LizLaz. This incident has sent fans into a tailspin, making it the Trending News Indiacategory on multiple platforms.

Photographer Shares Screenshot

The controversy began when photographer Advait Vaidya posted a video on Instagram. The clip contained a screenshot showing that an old picture of LizLaz had received a ‘like’ from Kohli’s verified account. Mr. Vaidya captioned the post, “How to react to this... when GOAT Virat Kohli likes your post.”

Who is LizLaz?

The model at the center of this storm is LizLaz, a popular influencer known for her travel content. She holds a significant following in India, boasting over 4 lakh Instagram followers. Reports indicate she has previously named Virat Kohli as her favourite cricketer in an interview.

Not the First Incident

This is not the first time Kohli’s digital footprint has made headlines. In May 2025, the cricketer had accidentally liked a photo of actress Avneet Kaur. Following that India News Update, Kohli issued a rare clarification, blaming an “algorithm error” and requesting fans not to create “unnecessary stories.”

No Official Clarification Yet

As of this report, there is no confirmation whether the interaction was intentional. Sources indicated it could again be a case of an automated glitch. However, the lack of an immediate statement from the English News Portal India-tracked star has allowed speculation to run wild across X (formerly Twitter) and Reddit.

Kohli’s Stellar IPL Form

Amid the off-field buzz, Kohli remains focused on the ongoing IPL 2026. As a Government Updatessource on sports would note, he is the highest run-scorer for RCB, amassing 228 runs in five matches. He recently played as an ‘impact player’ for the first time in his career, helping RCB secure second place on the points table.

What Next for the Batter

The legendary cricketer will hope to let his bat do the talking. RCB faces the Delhi Capitals on April 18. While the Latest News Todayrevolves around his Instagram activity, the Public Interest Storyremains whether Kohli breaks his silence or lets the algorithm take the blame once again.
