New Delhi, Mar 31:
Defending an under-fire Virat Kohli, Indian cricket Team Director Ravi Shastri today said the swashbuckling batsman’s ordinary run in the World Cup had nothing to do with his actress-girlfriend Anushka Sharma’s presence and to call it that is “utter nonsense”.
“If it was so, Virat wouldn’t have got 700 runs and smashed four centuries in Tests in Australia. His work ethics is as good as any I have seen. His heart beats for India. It’s a pedigree you don’t see often. And to tell you the truth, he isn’t a finished article yet,” Shastri said.
Shastri found much to praise in Kohli’s revival after a disastrous England tour last year when he constantly fell to Jimmy Anderson and company.(PTI)
