VIRAT KOHLIIrrespective of whether you have talent or not, one has to work hard. Just being talented doesn’t mean anything; you can end up wasting it before you realize.
VIRAT KOHLII get really motivated when I put on the India jersey. It is a responsibility, so I want to perform in the best way I can.
VIRAT KOHLII always had a sense of discipline in me. However, there was a time when I couldn’t divide my time properly between off-field things and on-field assignments. The focus would be missing at times, and that would affect my preparation for matches. I managed to change that.
