Optimism
Passion
Enthusiasm
Honesty
Never give up
Always speaking from the heart
Are some of the inspiring qualities of Virat Kohli.
Unarguably he is the “larger than life” superstar for many in this generation.
He’s a fighter on the field but his bat speaks another language. Controlled aggression is the name of the game when Virat Kohli wields his willow. The casual observer might latch on to the MCs and BCs he spouts on the cricket field (and off it) but leading the Indian Test team while also being the number one batsman in a country where the sport is more of a religion cannot be easy.
