He was known for defending most of the balls but he never left any opportunity to smash a loose ball to the boundary as well.

Giving his opinion on the batting form, Rahul Dravid recently said: “As a player, you go through these kinds of phrases. I don’t think in Virat’s case, it is a lack of motivation or desire. It’s not about scoring three figures, even a 70 on a difficult pitch is worth appreciation. In Cape Town, he didn’t convert it into a century, but it was a good score.”
