Indian cricketer Virat Kohli is making his much-awaited return to the Indian team, as he has been picked for the upcoming tour to Australia. The player, once known for his aggression and attitude, has now been transformed into a calm and composed cricketer.
Even today, when the former India skipper's clips from the 2017 Border-Gavaskar Trophy and the series following it resurface on the internet, it brings back fond memories and displays his ruthlessness as a Captain on the field.
"He would show them up otherwise. Because if you're running between the wicket, and if you’re a lazy bugger, you will soon find out. If you are looking for a second run and if you're panting, and if he's looking for a third and you're yet to complete the second, immediately the message would be 'get to that bloody gym and start training, and get fitter'," Shastri said on the LiSTNR Sport podcast.
"Ready to get out there and punch him. That's Virat for you," said Ravi Shastri
They beat Australia for the first time in a Test series on Australian soil and won the ICC Test Mace for five years straight; however, they could not get their hands on an ICC Trophy, having missed out on semi-finals as well as finals.
"At times, I had to calm him down. If a wicket went down, he would jump out of his seat. I would say, 'Calm down. Let him cross halfway at least. Don't meet him when he's just 10 yards away from the stumps, you know. Come near the boundary line, then cross him'. He was like a cat on a hot tin roof, ready to get out there and punch him. That's Virat for you," added Shastri.
