Virat Kohli: A Leader Who Embodies the New India in Cricket<\/h2>\n\nThe renowned cricketer, Virat Kohli, has rejected the label of being the “most Australian non-Australian”, preferring to identify himself as a representative of a “new India”.

The reaction towards Kohli during this tour of Australia has been unprecedented.\n\nCommentators, former test players, and media have focused their attention on Kohli and the impact his absence will have on the matches.\n\n\n

Kohli assured that Rahane will do a great job and that it is his time to shine as both an individual player and captain.\n\n\n

“We have had a lot of understanding and mutual respect over the years. We have had great partnerships batting together, based on trust and understanding of what is needed for the team. Jinks has done a tremendous job in the two practice matches. He seems very calm and knows the strengths of our team and how we should do things”.<\/p>\n\nVirat Kohli<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
