New Delhi, Dec 2 Whether India wins or loses a match, one thing that’s for certain is that with skipper Virat Kohli on the field, there will be no dull moment. The everanimated skipper is bound to push his players and bring out their best on the field in every single match. At Canberra’s Manuka Oval on Wednesday, it was just the same. With Glenn Maxwell taking the attack to the Indian bowlers, it looked like Australia were on course to do a hat-trick of w i n s over India. But as soon as he was d i s - missed, B u m r a h and Co. wrapped up the game to give India a 13-run win in the 3rd ODI. Former India batsman VVS Laxman said that he is always amazed by the intensity that Virat Kohli brings out on the field and said that one of the India skipper’s biggest achievements was to not face a burnt out in the sport. “Oh yeah, phenomenal! I think, the way he has played in each and every series, the kind of intensity he has maintained each and every day, when he’s on the cricket field is unbelievable, because at some stage I thought that will be the biggest challenge for Virat Kohli, at some stages he will burn out, but not even once we have seen that energy drop down when Virat is on the c r i c k e t f i e l d , whether he is batting or he is f i e l d i n g , ” VVS Laxman said on The Cricket Connected Show on Star Sports. The India great went on to talk about how Kohli over time has learnt to master the chase and ‘relishes’ under pressure.
