Most Searched Sports Personalities: Yahoo have done a year in review for the year 2021, and have prepared a list of most searched sports personalities. Here are top 5 such personalities in Indian sports!
#5 – Rohit Sharma
We begin the list with the newly-appointed India T20 captain. Rohit has been in the news all through this year, and mostly for the right reasons.
Apart from his appointment as the full-time T20 captain of India, he also cemented his place in the Test squad this year with great knocks against Australia and England both home and away.
#4 – Sachin Tendulkar
The God of cricket can never stay away from people’s hearts. Even after completing 8 years of his retirement, he is still one of the most-searched sportstars in the country!
From his appearance in March this year in the Road Safety series to his son Arjun being picked up in the auctions by Mumbai Indians, Sachin remained in the limelight for all the right reasons!

#3 – Neeraj Chopra
He’s the only non-cricketer on this list, and he deserves to be here! Chopra did the unthinkable as he won India their second-ever singles Gold medal in Olympics.
Ever since coming back to India after winning the Gold, he has been showered with love by all Indian fans, and rightly so!
#2 – MS Dhoni
Thala Dhoni always stays in news due to suspense around when (or if) he will hang up his boots from franchise cricket as well!
Apart from this “will he won’t he” conundrum, he also captained CSK to their 4th IPL title this year. Dhoni also was announced as the Team Mentor for the T20 World Cup 2021 for Team India.
Safe to say, MSD had quite a busy year, and is rightfully No.2 on our list!
#1 – Virat Kohli
He’s the most valuable star in not only Indian cricket, but world cricket currently! His multiple brand endorsements and his baby being born were the stories off the field that kept him relevant this year.
On the field, it was his quest for that elusive 71st international century, his stepping down from the RCB and India T20 captaincy, him captaining India to the inaugural WTC final and many other things that made him who he is!
