#Throwback
Interviews/pcs are at best when players speak their heart out rather than putting out some cliches.

This is Virat Kohli at Perth 2012 (after Day-1), speaking out about how this 'cruel world' treated him unfairly. You can see pure emotions on his face.

India 0-2 down by then,
6th consecutive loss away from home.
Kohli's scores were 11,0, 23 & 9..

Mind you seniors were not doing much different but hey! they were too big names to get criticized for our media.. So let's go after a 6-Test old youngster..

If string of low scores were not enough, his engagement with Sydney crowd was headline of every newspaper. Every time he was adjudged out, he reacted like a kid whose chocolate had been taken away.. Team going for go-karting before Perth Test was a prime time discussion...

Result of all that- most of experts wanted him to get replaced by Rohit Sharma at all costs. Few wanted to "give him one more test just to be sure.." :)

Anyways he was backed for another test & guess what? top scored in both inns(44 & 75)at Perth & rest, as they say, is history.
