With a single promotional post on Instagram, Indian cricket captain Virat Kohli can make enough money to buy a swanky new Porsche 911.

Kohli could earn up to $120,000 -- more than enough to buy the sportscar -- with every promotional post, according to estimates in the latest Instagram Rich List published by U.K.-based HopperHQ. The cricket captain, who ranks 17, is the only Asian and cricketer to feature on the list of 75 celebrities.

“Social media marketing has grown so much within the last year, and a tool that continues to yield results for brands is celebrity and influencer social endorsements,” Mike Bandar, co-founder of HopperHQ.com, said in a statement.

Model and entrepreneur Kylie Jenner, who is expected to be the next youngest billionaire by Forbes, topped the list with an estimated earning of $1 million for each post. She is followed by last year’s winner and singer Selena Gomez, football icon Cristiano Ronaldo, Jenner’s half-sister Kim Kardashian and singer Beyonce Knowles.
