Virat Kohli Emerges as IPL 2026’s Biggest Talking Point
Star Sports has released another poster which informed the fans about the most talked about players in social conversations. Virat Kohli, the King, was able to top the charts by a huge margin. He is being followed by MS Dhoni, who is yet to play a game this season.
This season the Indian Premier League has been like no other. With the playoffs race being intense, Star Sports is working out on the tournament analytics through social media. Recently, it released a poster which has informed the fans about the most talked about players in social conversations for IPL 2026.
And in this list, the player who stood at the top was none other than Virat Kohli. He has played every single game for the team and also managed to dominate them with ease. In this list, Virat Kohli stands tall holding 44% in the social conversations. No other player has managed to even touch half of what Kohli has achieved in this record.
But there is also one player who is holding the second spot without even playing a game in this tournament. And it is MS Dhoni, who has 21% and he is being followed by Rohit Sharma, who stands at the third spot with 18%. In total, it can be seen that the big three in the IPL have managed to bring up around 80% in this list.
Our Take
The Indian Premier League has been solely dominated by these three stars, who have been a part of the same since the inaugural edition. Virat Kohli remains in the headlines for having the top spot in the list. But MS Dhoni and his popularity shall not be underestimated, as he holds the second spot without even playing a single game this season.
