“I draw inspiration from my past successes and learnings”- Virat Kohli
Renowned as the face of Indian cricket, Virat Kohli is gearing up for an action-packed season of international cricket. In recent years, the Indian cricket team, commonly referred to as the Men in Blue, has faced the challenge of securing a major championship victory.
This is a key aspect that the team, under the leadership of Rohit Sharma, aims to transform in the upcoming Asia Cup 2023 and ODI World Cup. In anticipation of these two cricketing spectacles, Virat Kohli, one of India’s most reliable batsmen, openly discussed his mental preparations as he braces himself for a series of demanding matches.
Addressing this topic, the 34-year-old cricketer revealed that he derives motivation from his past achievements and the insights gained from his experiences. The former captain of the Indian team also emphasized that he engages in a thorough analysis of his performance to foster improvement and evolution as a player. He highlighted the importance of developing greater resilience to sustain a constant forward momentum.
Virat Kohli (to Indian Express) said “I draw inspiration from my past successes and learnings. Reflecting on the moments when I performed at my best and analyzing the areas where I can improve from losses helps me grow as a player. Every setback becomes an opportunity for me to come back stronger.
“What has truly defined me as a person is my ability to stay resilient and keep pushing forward, no matter how difficult the circumstances. People will always have opinions and judgments, but I have learned to trust my instincts and have confidence in my abilities. This self-belief has been the driving force behind all my achievements on the cricket field.”
