Kohli a ‘proponent of all-out aggression’, says Greg Chappell

Sydney, Dec 11 : Team India skipper Virat Kohli doesn’t believe in passive resistance and wants to dominate the opposition, says former Australia skipper Greg Chappell.
In a column for The Sydney Morning Herald, Chappell says that Kohli is the most “Australian non-Australian cricketer” of all time.
“Virat Kohli does not believe in passive resistance. He is a proponent of all-out aggression. His idea is to dominate the opposition,” writes Chappell.
“He embodies the new India. As the premier player and captain of the world’s pre-eminent cricket power, he feels an abiding responsibility to the wider game,” he adds.
Chappell, who served as the head coach of the Indian team from 2005 to 2007, further says that the talismanic Indian batsman has a broad perspective on the game. “He (Kohli) is aware of his personal record, but that is not his focus. Winning games for India is way more important to him and he sees it as his prime objective.” Often termed as being over-aggressive, Kohli drew rich praise from the entire cricket fraternity when he urged fans from booing Australia’s Steve Smith during the World Cup in England and Wales last year. For his gesture, Kohli won the ‘Spirit of Cricket’ award in 2019 and is also in contention for the ICC Spirit of Cricket Award of the Decade.
