VK has a time to interact with aspiring cricketers

Ahead of India's first Test against New Zealand, starting on October 16, Virat Kohli took time to interact with aspiring cricketers at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. The star batter, known for his commitment to the game, was seen sharing insights and engaging in discussions with young players. Kohli also made the occasion memorable for one cricketer by gifting an autographed bat, adding a special touch to the young players' experience.

Kohli's involvement in the training session comes as India gears up for the crucial Test series against New Zealand, which serves as a lead-up to the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia. Kohli's role will be pivotal in both series as India prepares for a challenging schedule, with eight Test matches lined up over the next three months.

Indian head coach Gautam Gambhir expressed confidence in Kohli's ability to return to top form in Test cricket. Reflecting on Kohli’s long-standing hunger for success, Gambhir remarked on his determination to perform at the highest level, highlighting the consistency that has made Kohli a world-class cricketer.

In 2024, Kohli played three Test matches but is still seeking his first fifty of the year. Despite some struggles, Gambhir believes that once Kohli regains his rhythm, he will be a force to reckon with, not only in the New Zealand series but also in the upcoming Australia tour. Kohli's hunger for runs remains as strong as ever, and his contributions will be crucial to India’s success.
