Virat Kohli, recognized as one of the world’s best batsmen, has been the subject of a recent comment by former Indian head coach Rahul Dravid. Dravid, during a podcast, discussed Kohli’s height in relation to his batting style. Dravid’s comments focused on how Gavaskar and Tendulkar were balanced players. He observed the advantages that shorter players have in batting. He also mentioned Kohli’s stature.
Dravid noted the changing landscape of cricket, emphasizing the need for players to hit sixes frequently. He contrasted this with the advantages that taller players have in terms of shot selection. During Dravid’s coaching, the Indian team achieved a significant victory, winning the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Kohli played an important role in the tournament, including a match-winning performance in the final against South Africa, where he scored 76 runs.
