Football Star David Luiz Wishes Kohli & Team India for World Cup

In 2014, Kohli had posed with a Chelsea shirt during a visit to their stadium, Stamford Bridge.

With just a three days to go for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019, Brazil and Chelsea football star David Luiz has pledged his support to Virat Kohli and Team India.

In a video tweeted by businessman and philanthropist Frank Khalid, Luiz can be heard saying, "Hello, Virat Kohli! Good luck for the World Cup bro. God bless you a lot, to you and your team. I’m gonna be supporting you. See you soon”.

As you all know I love both football & cricket. I asked @DavidLuiz_4 who he was backing for the @cricketworldcup & his reply was @BCCI & captain @imVkohli . He had a special message for the captain. 🇮🇳 #ViratKohli pic.twitter.com/2kKqwSnrtX
