Virat kohli is arguably the fittest Indian cricketer around but that is not good enough for the champion batsman as he wants to become the best athlete in the world, reveals India and RCB fitness coach Shanker Basu.
Kohli has worked immensely on his fitness, especially strength, and the results of that are quite visible. He now hits sixes with as much ease as he pierces the field for boundaries.
"Virat has decided to become the best athlete in the world and sky is the limit".
There are a lot of role models ahead of him in terms of sheer athletic abilities and he will never shy away from competition.
Basu, who has worked with Kohli at RCB and in the national team, feels the supremely fit batsman is set to raise the bar.
"Virat will never challenge you once he is convinced about your methods. I found an athlete who was ready to go through the grind and work hard consistently whenever the need arose. He is very good with his nutrition plans and discipline factors.
