Virat Kohli is one of the biggest names in the cricketing world right now. Besides his amazing cricketing skills and talent, Kohli is known for his flamboyant attitude. He is loved by billions because of his attitude and for being the person that he is today. His dedication and passion for the game of cricket has inspired millions. He is the epitome of consistency and perseverance.
Besides his many qualities, Kohli is also known for his aggressive and angry behavior on-field, which can be intimidating for the opposition on-field.
Even Sadhguru Is a Fan Of Virat Kohli
Meanwhile, speaking on the behavior of Kohli, Yoga Guru, and spiritual leader Sadhguru once said: “If he learns to be a cool fire and not the fire that burns him up, he will do things which probably has not been done for a long time.”
In an interview with the chairman of RPSG group Mr Sanjeev Goenka, Sadhguru also expressed his admiration towards Virat Kohli as he went on to compare him with Sir Vivian Richards. He said:
“I have seen many great batsmen in the last 40 to 45 years, very few have hit the ball the way he (Virat) is hitting it. The only person I can think of who used to hit the ball this way was Vivian Richards. He was the only one who was striking the ball, the way this boy is striking it today which is very rare,” said Sadhguru.
“I term Cricket as a very dangerous game on the planet because this is the only sport where the ball is pitched and the ball swings both ways,”
Sadhguru’s big prediction about Kohli
Further, Sadhguru also recalled the incident when he first saw glimpses of Kohli during the U-19 World Cup in Malaysia. Sadhguru revealed that he had then predicted, “This boy will go far.”
Virat Kohli, who is on the cusp of shattering Sachin Tendulkar’s record of smashing the most number of ODI tons, recently admitted that his angry side and those ‘angry celebrations’ are a thing of the past now.
“The last two and a half years have taught me a lot. Those angry celebrations are a thing of the past. I have had many suggestions, and lots of advice has come my way; people were telling me I was doing this wrong, that wrong.
“I picked out all the videos from the best time I had, same initial movement, same approach towards the ball and it was just what was happening inside my head, I wasn’t able to explain it to anyone,” said Kohli.
