Watching Kohli’s press conference can give you diabetes

[maniac]

 

There is nothing wrong being a good guy but just feel he goes out of his way to shower praise on anything and everything. Obviously Kane Williamson is a modern great but it is pretty much the same template on every topic

he is trying to loose his bad boy image, he can not control his emotions on field and is trying to compensate elsewhere.

This is his inner beast speaking

once my manager at samsung kept praising me when we were working in some non-android platform arnd 2010 ( literally jobless for 2 years ) ..

later he gave me the bottom rating ( 5 in the scale of 1 to 5 .. 5 being the bottom 5% performers / trouble makers ) during appraisal saying we as a team were just hedges if android flops and asked me to find another job

It gives some theories, every one is wondering who is this Kohli... may be as this opinion says is for getting his brand a global makeover.

Kohli is not smart enough to mimic/imitate Sun Tzu, whose strategy and tactics were exceptional. I think it's just his PR team going into overdrive.

Such a fanboi. He probably enjoys cleaning MSD's boots after the match is over.

Lawda mera. 

Kohli is too dumb to even comprehend Chetan Bhagat. Sun Tzu to door ki bat hai. 

[ThePhenomenal1]

Being classy and humble is fine, but on field he should be the Virat kohli who would tackle anything in his way, take the fight to teams like pakistan and not just australia, and not make decisions with his PR in mind. The aggression is missing, he needs to get that edge back. Still making runs, but more of a slow accumulator type. Hoping he turns up big for these knockout games. They will define his legacy I feel.

[Reddysaab]

Kohli needs to stop this goody goody bullshet routine and get real. if india lose to NZ in this "served on a platter semi", its a disgrace.

 

so pls shut up and thrash NZ and get to final

If we lose, you can be sure Kohli will turn to the press conference and talk about how "nice" NZ team is, how "amazing" Kane is, and how the "better" team won, etc. Unlike in Tests, where Kohli still shows hunger, I feel he doesn't care much whether Ind (or RCB) win in ODIs or T20s.

I agree. This is just brand building bullshit.

The guy gets his centuries from pure aggression. In his bid to lure the global customer,he has lost the fire.

 

Won't be surprised if he goes back to his old ways to get back into century hitting mode.

 

He better get back to that because Rohit is beating him on the ground and off the ground.

 

Rohit is the star of the wc so far.

 

Rohit's frank talk is such a breath of fresh air compared to the curated bullshit that comes out of kohli.

 

Off the field too..rohit with his loyal wife and lovely baby are getting more eyeballs than the extremely posed romantic pics of kohli and spouse.

tough to beat Rohit as the charm is effortless in his case, dad bod wife and that little dumpling with his scarcely believable batting. But Kohli..Kohli is king dude, if he is charming it just means people note he chose to be charming. 

[Adorable Fan]

He is doing all these for PR drama
