Indian cricket system helped 'brat' Kohli transform: Shoaib Akhtar

By Saurabh Sharma September 12, 2020 • 22:34 PM View: 1500

While praising India's "cricket system", former Pakistan fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar has said that Virat Kohli gained immensely from it as he received great support that helped him become one of the leading international batsmen of the present generation. The Pakistani also said that about 10 years ago the current India captain was a "brat" like him before the system-aided transformation came about.

Kohli made his ODI debut in 2008, played his first T20 in 2010, and made his Test debut in 2011.
