Correct is right

Chase master dat

Khushdil to Kohli, FOUR, Kohli hits the winning runs, gets to his century as well! Plenty of smiles in the Indian camp. Shimmies down the track and slams this length ball wide of extra cover. Off comes the helmet, Kohli raises his bat and then looks heavenwards. Vintage!

The most impotant facet of Virat's game for our young players to learn is his commitment to fitness. A few weeks from 36 and 72 of those runs were ones and twos. With the exception of possibly Shai Hope, none of our players could do that. If the body is not fit, then the brain and concentration follow. That is why we have headless cricketers and our coaches seem unable or unwilling to deal with this issue.

Cricket fans were just antsy about his dry spell, i don't think it was hatred (except a few here and there). They are accustomed to seeing this type of innings ....

Anyone hating Kohl's greatness, suggests you don't like yourself much.

Among fab 4...Kohli and Smith are the ones with extra gear and have that going for the jugular behaviour..other lack these characteristics

Whatever you are referencing has led Kholi to a (46.85) Test average. Again, he is unquestionably great in ODIs in Test he is outstanding, that "characteristic" notwithstanding.

Succinctly Kholi:

ODIs - Great
Test - Outstanding.
