WATCH: Pakistan players talk about commitment of Virat Kohli ahead of ODI World Cup 2023

Ahead of the match between India and Pakistan, the players from Pakistan were asked to talk about Virat Kohli. The Pakistani players expressed their opinions on Virat. The likes of Imam-Ul-Haq, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Rizwan, and Haris Rauf talked about the Indian star cricketer.

“I like his never-give-up attitude. Also, I like the way he sledges Australia in their own territory and messes with them. Though he has cooled down as of late as we have seen recently, his belief and attitude are so different than others. He believes that he can achieve and do well in any situation,” said Imam-Ul-Haq.

“There could be a lot of players like him ability-wise, but his ability and mindset are different, his hunger does not end, and that is why he is elite,” added Imam.

‘I could understand why he has such a big status in international cricket’ – Haris Rauf

The Pakistani pacer Haris Rauf revealed his experience of being a net bowler to Virat, during his stint in the BBL. “When I was a net bowler bowling to Virat, I felt that he knew where my ball was going to land. That is how focused he was. He was playing me in nets like an actual match with so much aggression. When I saw his control, I could understand why he has such a big status in international cricket, it is something different,” said the Pakistani pacer.

The Pakistani wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan spoke highly about Virat. Rizwan admired the finishing skills of Virat. “When he is well set and has few runs under his belt, his finishing touches and shots are unlike every other player in the world. Nobody comes close to him,” said Rizwan.

The Pakistani All-rounder Shadab Khan spoke about Kohli’s passion for the game. The leg spinner regarded Virat as a legend and considered him a world-class player. “He has that hunger to score and improve himself all the time. He is a world-class player, a legend already, but still, he wants to do well for India. I like this commitment,” said Shadab.
