I thought Virat Kohli will burn out at some stages of his career: VVS Laxman
Former cricketer VVS Laxman has lavished reward on Virat Kohli who lately breached the 12000-run mark in ODIs, saying the present Indian skipper has been in a position to play with the identical depth he used to when he made his debut in 2008.

The Indian skipper has taken 242 innings (251 matches) to attain 12,000 ODI runs, 58 lower than legendary Sachin Tendulkar who had reached the landmark in 300 ODI innings (309 matches).
“I think, the way he has played in each and every series, the kind of intensity he has maintained each and every day, when he’s on the cricket field is unbelievable, because at some stage I thought that will be the biggest challenge for Virat Kohli, at some stages he will burn out, but not even once we have seen that energy drop down when Virat is on the cricket field, whether he is batting or he is fielding,” Laxman stated whereas talking on Star Sports present Cricket Connected.
Kohli has additionally performed 86 Tests and 82 T20Is by which he has scored 7,240 and a couple of,794 runs respectively. In complete, he has hit 70 centuries (27 in Tests and 43 in ODIs).
Laxman stated one of many nice issues about Kohli has been his means to carry out underneath strain. The 32-year-old has scored 26 of his 42 ODI centuries whereas chasing.
“…if you see his one-day record how many hundreds did he get while chasing and then you know that you’ve got a target to achieve, there’s always a scoreboard pressure on him, but he relishes pressure, he relishes responsibility and that’s what gets the best out of him,” stated Laxman.
Having stated that, 2020 turned out to be the one yr since Kohli’s debut the place he was unable to attain a single hundred in ODIs.
Team India, who misplaced the ODI sequence 1-2, will now look to hunt revenge in opposition to Australia within the three-match T20I sequence in opposition to starting Friday on the Manuka Oval in Canberra.
