The timing is interesting, right after he broke Sangakkara's record. Maybe he wanted a brief digital detox from all the congratulatory noise? Even legends need a break sometimes.

The memes were hilarious though! Saw one that said "Kohli's account went to chase Sachin's record of 100 centuries too" 😂. But seriously, his management should have issued a statement to avoid panic among fans.

With his brother's account also gone, it definitely points to a family-wide issue, maybe a security concern or hack attempt. Hope everything is sorted now. King Kohli's focus should be on the game, not this social media drama.

Respectfully, while I'm a huge fan, this incident shows how much of our news cycle is consumed by celebrity social media activity. The article mentions his phenomenal 28,215 runs, which is the real story, not his Instagram handle.

Chalo, sab theek hai. 274 million followers... that's almost double the population of many countries! Just shows his insane reach. On to the next record, Virat! Sachin paaji's 100 centuries is the final frontier. 🏏
