Revealed after years, Dhoni had expressed confidence in Virat Kohli to bat on number-3
At present, Virat Kohli’s team RCB is seen performing his best so far in the 18th season of the IPL played in India and Virat has been scoring more than 500 runs in 11 matches at the moment.
Amidst all this, Virat Kohli remembered the moment when there was a situation in his life when many people were talking against him, then who supported him. They will never forget this. Despite dominating the bat, Kohli has not forgotten how far he has come.
People did not believe Virat Kohli a match winner
Talking about this in an interview, Kohli said about the early stages of his career when Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Gary Customs had relied on him for the important number three positions in India’s batting order. In the early days, Kohli did not have much external pressure or pressure to think beyond the IPL. Even though the conversation about his ability was starting.
Responding to this, Kohli said that at that time he was not in the same position about his game, as is today. Kohli said that I did not feel that my game was close to the game of other players. I only had my determination. If I wanted to win my team, I was ready to do anything. At that time Kohli was not seen at all as a match winner who can win the match on his own.
Dhoni expressed confidence
Even though Virat Kohli was not seen as a match winner, he was determined that he would remain in this fight and would not give up, which was supported by Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Gary. Kohli himself admitted that he was not technically the most talented cricketer in the early stages but became different from another cricketer after learning and reforms.
Nearly two decades after his career, this struggle attitude of Kohli (Virat Kohli) remains inspiration even today. At that time, the confidence he expressed at that time, not only made him a star cricketer today but also showed a keen eye on the character more than Dhoni’s talent.
