Virat won the title in 2011 whereas Muller won the Fifa World Cup in 2014. Virat is already a known fanboy of football. He often shows his passion for the same openly during the tournaments. India has a huge fan base for world football anyway, and Indians love these clubs as their own. Indian cricket players, along with the captain are no exception. Once post the Euro 2016, Virat took to his social media account to showcase his love for Germany. It seems like Muller has remembered the same and now wants to return the favour and support Virat wholeheartedly to lift the World Cup 2019, currently being played in England.
India to Begin WC 2019
World Cup 2019 has started in full swing on May 30, and all of the teams have played at least one match so far except India. India will face South Africa on June 5 to start its campaign. This is due to a Lodha recommendation that suggests players should get 15-day rest before another tournament. So followed by hectic IPL, BCCI has requested ICC to delay India’s first play. Kohli will be leading the side for the first time in the World Cup, and Muller’s special wish will undoubtedly motivate him for the hunt.
