BENGALURU: Virat Kohli’s ability to stay grounded despite achieving so much is the reason for the cult-like following the former India and Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper has developed over the years, says his former India and RCB teammate Dinesh Karthik, now gaining a reputation as a noted commentator.
While speaking on RCB Podcast Season 2, the third of 10 episodes, Karthik described Kohli as an emotional, caring and reactive person who has achieved so much on and off the field makes him a champion in all walks of life.
“What he has achieved as a person?he has carried the team for the last 10 years. His consistency and mastery over the game I don’t think anybody has achieved it in the world of cricket for a very, very long time,” said Karthik, who has seen Kohli up close while sharing the dressing room with him for Team India and the Royal Challengers Bangalore.
“His dominance for about close to a decade is unparalleled. We have to understand that there are three different formats, and playing three different formats itself is difficult and then there he is averaging 50 in all of them, travelling abroad and scoring as well. I can speak about him a lot. He is very chill, very easy, with the bowlers, the young guys,” Karthik was quoted as saying by RCB in a release on Friday. IANS
