Will Virat Kohli win World Cup astrology?

Virat Kohli will strike a record-breaking endorsement deal in 2018, said renowned cricket astrologer Narendra Bunde. – Virat Kohli has been on a record-breaking spree since the start of 2016 (Reuters Photo) Renowned astrologer Narendra Bunde has predicted that Virat Kohli will go on to break all of Sachin Tendulkar’s records and also win the World Cup by 2025. Kohli has been on a record-breaking spree since the start of 2016 and has struck 35 ODI centuries and 21 Test hundreds in his career so far.

In ODIs, Kohli is only behind the great Tendulkar, who hit a world record 49 tons. Kohli recently became the fastest to reach 17000 runs in international cricket and also has most number of Test double hundreds as a captain. “All my past predictions had been correct. I can see Virat winning the T20 and ODI World Cup by 2025 and also break Sachin’s record,” Nagpur-based Bunde said.

Bunde also said that Kohli will sign a record-breaking endorsement deal in 2018. “Besides, he will also strike the biggest ever endorsement deal in cricket in 2018. You can somewhat compare this with Tendulkar’s record signing with Mark Mascarenhas Worldtel but the money involved will be obviously bigger today,” he added.

1. Also read: Kohli an unstoppable force: All the stats and numbers you need to know Bunde had last year predicted that Mahendra Singh Dhoni would be playing in the 2019 World Cup in England, at a time when many questioned his place in the limited overs game.
2. In the 1990s when Tendulkar was going great guns, Mascarenhas changed the game of celebrity management and turned the cricket icon into a multi-millionaire.

Bunde, has in the past, got several predictions right. These incclude a successful comeback for Tendulkar from his tennis elbow injury and a Bharat Ratna for the Master Blaster. He had also predicted a comeback for Sourav Ganguly and successfully predicted India’s World Cup triumph in 2011.

Bunde said the time has now come for Kohli to taste overseas success. India toured South Africa recently and will travel to England in the summer followed by a tour of Australia at the end of 2018. “Kohli’s Venus is very strong at the moment and that is why he will do well abroad. And I am very sure India will do really well in Australia.” Bunde, who turned to predicting the future of cricketer’s in 2006, was a jeweller before that.

Among those who have taken his advice are Ganguly, Murali Karthik, S Sreesanth, Zaheer Khan, Gautam Gambhir and Suresh Raina. Even actress Preity Zinta had sought his guidance when her IPL franchise Kings XI Punjab was going through a torrid time.
