VIRAT: The Making of a Champion
معلومات عن هذا الكتاب الإلكتروني
He is that exceptional teenager who returned to play an innings
the day his dad passed away. He is the chubby rookie who now
sets fitness goals. He is the fiery batsman and nimble fielder who
always wants to win. Virat Kohli’s determination to overcome
his drawbacks and shine his skills has him well on his way to
becoming an all-time great in cricket.
From gully cricket and junior teams to the Ranji and national
squads, Virat has had more than his share of hurdles. But
pressure is his middle name – and he has made performing
under the toughest conditions an art with his fine strokes, his
electric feet and his ginormous hunger for runs. That’s why the
dashing King Kohli – captain of Team India across all formats
of the game – holds many records and prestigious awards.
Virat looks unstoppable in the lead-up to the top, and his
tremendously inspiring story is told vividly in this book.
Peppered with anecdotes and stories from his coaches,
teammates and other insiders from the cricketing world, this is
one life story that is a must-read for everyone who, like Virat,
prizes both guts and glory.
