However, he has had to juggle between his poor batting show and responsibilities as the captain as well. Kohli has been going through a rough patch with the bat so far.

Meanwhile, Hogg praised Kohli’s attribute of being vulnerable as a leader and he believes his style will help youngsters in future as well. While speaking on his YouTube channel, Brad Hogg said: “Leaders have to show their vulnerability as well, and Virat Kohli has been doing that with his little lack of form or the tough run he’s had as of late. He’s not shying back from it. He’s getting out there and he realizes that he is in it and he’s working on it. And what that does, it creates that environment where the youngsters see it from their leaders and they feel comfortable to go in there and follow their leader.”
