Out-Of-Form KL Rahul Asks Virat Kohli To Calm Down

The turn of the decade has seen a welcome change in the Indian cricket. Unlike most of their competitors, the Indian setup rarely gave much importance to fitness. Not surprisingly, India were not considered a top fielding side despite having a plethora of world class players.

However, things have changed in the last few years. The current team is arguably the fittest side in the world and the effect can be seen on the field. While most players of other countries are having a tough time in playing all the three formats, most of the Indian players are constantly playing across formats.

One of the major reason behind the team’s transformation is Virat Kohli. The current India skipper’s transformation as one of the best batsmen in the world right now is as amazing as his remarkable improvement in fitness. Although athletic from his early days, the current India skipper arrived at the international stage with a chubby face but has now transformed into probably the fittest cricketer in the world.

He has made fitness a top priority for selection in the national side and has also received backing from the BCCI. Passing the Yo Yo Test has now become mandatory to get into the Indian team.

And while Kohli’s relentless pursuit for excellence has helped him win praise from all over, his teammate KL Rahul wants him to relax now. The opening batsman recently appeared on chat show Koffee with Karan along with his teammate Hardik Pandya. During the conversation, Rahul said that Kohli needs to calm down and needs to go on a holiday mode.

 

“I think Virat. He needs to calm down. I keep telling him, he’s just, he has never had a holiday mode. He’s always like ‘work, work, work’,” said KL Rahul.

On the other hand, when the host asked whom would the two players take fitness advice from, Pandya said: “Virat.”

Pandya also said that Kohli is the biggest prankster in the team while Rahul said that the skipper is also the most romantic.
