Sydney, Jan 2:
Virat Kohli has got a new admirer for his on-field aggression in none other than legendary West Indian batsman Vivian Richards who described the new captain as one of those very few Indian cricketers who do not shy away from having a verbal fight with opposition players.
Kohli has frustrated Australia during the first three Tests of the Border-Gavaskar trophy, smashing 499 runs — including three centuries — at an average of 83.2, while also having some run-ins with a few Australian players.
“I love that man. People have got to understand that this game has changed quite a bit. Regardless of how good you are, you’re going to have guys coming at you. You’re going to have stuff being said,” Richards said.(PTI)
