With the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024, all attention is on Virat Kohli as the cricketing world prepares for another thrilling clash between India and Australia.
“While speaking to Mid-day, Lawson mentioned that Virat Kohli will portray the role of a faux villain, contrasting with Jasprit Bumrah’s likeable nature. Bumrah, being a fast bowler, has the advantage of spending a significant amount of time at fine leg, allowing him to interact with the crowd and win their smiles and hearts. On the other hand, Kohli will be seen lurking in the infield, appealing vociferously, fielding magnificently, and engaging in verbal conversations with any Australian player who is willing to participate.- said Lawson while speaking to Mid-day.”
Geoff Lawson, a former Australian fast bowler, has shared his insights on what to anticipate from Kohli in this crucial competition. Lawson believes that Kohli will once again embrace the role of the ‘faux villain,’ a character he has mastered during his time on Australian grounds.
