Virat Kohli Attitude
Rahane was asked for his views about Virat’s personality, especially which is misjudged by fans and critics, who often call him arrogant because of his body language. Instead of ignoring this question, he talked about the personal experiences he had with Virat Kohli, as he had played with him for most of his career.
Ajinkya Rahane said,
“However much we talk about Virat Kohli is never enough. But I have seen him very closely, how he goes about his batting. We talk about his batting. We talk about his passion and his intent each and every time. But I feel for me what stands out is his attitude. Attitude of learning, attitude of never giving up. People outside think Virat is arrogant, but he is not. He gets into the zone.”
Further, Rahane stated that initially in the team everyone gets confused about his behavior.
He said,
“I saw him two days before the game. He’ll hardly talk with people, even with the teammates. That’s what actually gets him into the zone. He’ll always wear his AirPods or try and listen to whatever he wants to and what he likes to get into the zone. Initially it took all the players a little bit of time. Why is he doing that? But then I got to know that he’s actually getting into the zone while not talking to anyone.”
