His name is Virat Kohli, and his occupation is cricket. He has a pastime too - breaking records, and setting new ones. Kohli amassed 200 runs in the first Test against England and became the No.1 Test batsman as per latest ICC rankings.

And ahead of the second Test, Virat's name has made headlines again. According to a report made by India Today, Virat Kohli's market value has now touched $35 million (£27 million). Wife and Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma has a net-worth of $60 million (£45 million), which makes "Virushka's" value almost reach $100 million.

Virat is already the most marketable cricketer in the world and is also the eighth most-paid sportsperson in the world. Together, the duo also endorses nearly 30 brands, which in turn brings additional money into the household as well.

The Forbes magazine has also predicted a 140% growth rate in his value in the upcoming financial year.
