Fact Check- 

We analysed the image carefully and we found that Virat Kohli’s sand sculpture has a smooth finish like a painting. These images raised doubts that a sand sculpture could not have such a finish. Usually images produced by AI (Artificial Intelligence) can be seen with such clarity and smoothness on the surface. 

There are some tools available to check if an image is AI generated. When tested with such a tool (Hive AI Detector) , the results suggested that the image is 100% likely to be AI-generated.
