Virat Kohli from captaining and winning the Under 19 World Cup in 2008 to becoming the undisputed World's Best Batsman in all formats of the game ten years later, has sacrificed a lot more than you can imagine. For starters, he has given up his favorite naan and butter chicken as his diet now should be gluten and fat free and he calls his food and workouts boring as they are taxing and monotonous.
Virat Kohli has admitted that he is a visualizer who sees the game in his mind's eye the night before and also every ball before it is bowled and that is what helps him to play his shots to such near perfection. Next is the intensity with which he works out and especially using high altitude masks in the gym, which strengthen his lungs and diaphragm, boosts oxygen intake and that is why he makes those running between wickets, hitting sixes at will and athletic fielding look so easy.
Kohli gives utmost importance to fitness as he knows it is imperative if he wants to play all three formats of cricket and the IPL. His attitude is to focus on winning every game since he strongly feels that the sacrifices he makes in preparations would be worthless if he didn't win. Apart from being an inspiration for all youngsters who play cricket, Virat Kohli remains an icon who can be followed by anyone in any stream of life who hunger for success. No doubt the world sees him as the best to ever play the gentleman’s game of cricket but lets not forget that he first sees himself as that.
