There are many reasons people love Virat Kohli. Mine is his absolute certainty that he doesn't need to change his game, only to improve it, to fit new requirements. https://twitter.com/sidvee/status/1314956714525954050
How do you look at the needs of T20 batting and conclude, not that you need to develop the switch-hit, the ramp or even the slog-sweep, but that you need to...run harder? This is doubly insane because you already run harder than everybody else.
Surely, for someone with Kohli's talent it will be far easier to learn how to play the improvised shots at an acceptable level than run 2% faster. Instead, he clings to this - clearly irrational - belief that he doesn't need to be different, only better than he was yesterday.
This is so attractive because it's a story of human improvement, of the triumph of the will. Nobody looks at a batsman who hits a 150 kph delivery back over the keeper's head and goes "I could do that". But we see Kohli win by running 2% harder, and that fills us with hope. <fin>
