Yes, you heard us right! The captain of the Indian cricket team feels that switching to a vegan diet has helped his game.

According to the Times of India, Virat Kohli has been avoiding animal protein for four months now. "Kohli started this diet four months ago and is feeling stronger as his digestive power has increased. He isn't missing meat, eggs or dairy", sources say.

He's following a plant-based diet at the moment, but we hope that he will make the shift to an ethical vegan soon!

The Indian athletes are finally warming upto the benefits of a plant-based diet and joining the list of famous plant-based cricketers like Jason Gillespie, Peter Siddle, Greg Chappel and Adam Zampa.
