And bucking him up for the big business venture was Kohli who, in a video message, said: "Hello Aleem Bhai I have heard that you have opened up a new restaurant...many congratulations on that.

"I wish that your restaurant becomes just as successful as you are an umpire."

Kohli, one of world cricket's biggest stars, continued: "I have also heard that you want to make a school for deaf children through the earnings of this restaurant so I hope that you accomplish what you want to accomplish. I encourage everyone to go and try his restaurant."
