Why Shahid Kapoor cited the example of mum & dad while picking his favourite cricketer?

XtraTime Web Desk: Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor faced a googly while facing his fans on a live chat. The ‘Kabir Singh’ fame actor was asked to pick his favourite Indian cricketer from MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli. The reply given by him (Shahid) won hearts as he preferred not picking either Dhoni or Kohli.

In a live chat with his fans on Twitter, Shahid was asked to pick between former India captain Dhoni and his successor Kohli.

The actor replied: “Mummy or papa? (Mother or father)”. Shahid did enough to highlight the importance of both in the Indian side with his answer drawing several plaudits on the social media platform.

Dhoni has been on a prolonged break since India’s semi-final loss to New Zealand in the 2019 World Cup. Kohli, considered the best batsman in the world across formats, recently failed to lead India to a Test series win in New Zealand as they lost 0-2.

Dhoni was back at the nets for Chennai Super Kings, of which he is the captain, but with the Indian Premier League getting postponed, the World Cup winning skipper had to return back midway.
