Can’t thank Rahul Dravid enough for what he did for Virat Kohli during the toughest phase of his career.
People talk about technical changes and form, but often forget the mental side of sport. Rahul bhai made Kohli feel comfortable again and gave him the mental peace every great player needs.
We all remember him walking out during timeouts to talk to Kohli, that hug after the iconic 82* vs Pakistan, and then fast forward to Guyana after Kohli got out in the T20 World Cup semifinal looking completely broken and dejected, Rahul bhai was there consoling him.
Kohli himself admitted there was a phase where he felt he might never get back to his best again, that maybe his time in Int'l cricket was coming to an end. But Rahul bhai, being a legend of the game himself, understood that every great player goes through phases like this.
At the RCB Summit today, Kohli said that whenever he meets Rahul bhai and Vikram Rathour, he thanks them from the bottom of his heart cos they took care of him in a way that made him feel like he wanted to play for them. They understood what he was going through and genuinely looked after him mentally.
One of the biggest reasons behind Kohli 2.0. ♥️🙏
