Virat Kohli is one of the fittest cricketers in the world at the moment. But there is always a person behind the scenes. The India Test skipper shared an Instagram post with Shankar Basu, the trainer responsible for making Kohli what he is today as far has his physical appearance is concerned. Kohli thanked him for helping him become what he is today. It was a nice gesture by the 27-year-old. May Kohli go on to score more runs for India, and him not forgetting all those who helped him as grow as a cricketer is only proof of how good he is as a person.

The man and the reason behind all the sprints in the ground and responsible for the transformation in my strength. Thank you mr. Shankar basu. You have taught me how to train like a professional and helped me break limits of pushing my body and iam grateful for that 🙏🙏 💪🏻💪🏻🏋🏼🏋🏼. #toptrainer #topman#greatknowledge
