Virat Kohli is India's cricketer who charges the most per Instagram post

Virat Kohli, India's Test captain, may be having a bad run with the bat in international cricket, but he continues to be a social media sensation.

Virat Kohli is the hottest personality on Instagram, according to Hopper's 2021 Instagram Rich List, charging a stunning $ 680,000 per post.

Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese striker for Manchester United, is at the top of the list, with a fee of $1,604,000.

Only two Indians make the top two lists. The first is Kohli, while the second is actress Priyanka Chopra, who is ranked 27th on the list. According to the allegation, she charges $403,000 each Instagram post.

Lionel Messi, who is seventh on the list and costs $1,169,000 per Instagram post, is another athlete in the top 20. Neymar Jr. is a Brazilian footballer who has a net worth of $ 824,000.

Virat Kohli is a social media sensation, with 177 million followers on Instagram.

Today, the 32-year-old is the wealthiest athlete in the country. It's difficult to conceive how much money he makes just from Instagram posts, let alone from other marketing arrangements.

Kohli is still fighting a lone battle with his poor form on the field.

Due to a back spasm, he was forced to miss the second Test against South Africa, but he will return for the third Test in Cape Town.

Virat Kohli hasn't struck a century in international cricket in over two years, with his most recent tonne coming in a Test against Bangladesh in Kolkata in November of this year.

The third Test starts on January 11.  

Hopefully, he can regain his form in the Cape Town Test, and India will make history by winning their first Test series in South Africa.
