I love this interviewer did a good research and asked the right question.. Inspiring interview..

[davidgoat]

Virat should be coach or cricket director after he's retired to guide the next generation of elite indian cricketers

From an Australian Fan of Graham Bensinger, always thought Kohli got a bad wrap in this country. Aggression and confidence doesn't mean arrogance. Ok I'm not the biggest IPL fan and I wish Cricket was more even between bat and ball. But Kohli is one of the worlds best today and I say Good on Him for the success

[Nadd]

The best Kohli interview I've seen so far. Amazing commitment this guy have. A good role model.
