From being a player who had a reputation of being aggressive on and off-field, to being a Captain who knows how and where to draw lines, he’s come a long way. Well, Virat Kohli is the heartthrob of Indian cricket fans!
He is as fierce as a tiger in the field but his newly-found calmness can now be seen in post-match interviews. And hear, hear, if you thought you couldn’t love the man more, you and your heart are in for a surprise!
We all know Kohli opted out from playing the India-Australia Dharamsala Test due to an injury in the shoulder but that didn’t stop him from getting on the field shouldering another responsibility for the day.
Yes, Virat walked in with water and refreshment for his teammates, to a huge crowd cheering for the ‘most expensive water boy’ on the ground!
Watch The Video Here:
Well, this is one thing that Indian captains haven’t been shy of. They are always on their toes and are involved in the match even if they are not playing.
Needless to say, as this moment became viral, twitter is bustling with adulation from all corners and I couldn’t help but share.
Not the ‘Phillauri’ we’d want. But, why not!?
is it this what I’m thinking the cutest water boy ever lovvee u virat #whatasportmanspirit #proudtobeaviratian 🙏🙏💗💗😌😍😍@imVkohli pic.twitter.com/EU56Vui7Ms

Even Mohammad Kaif couldn’t help but praise!
This commitment from Virat the only highlight of the first session for India.
Good batting track but Aus helped by wayward bowling.#IndvAus pic.twitter.com/dNYlWe11Sq— Mohammad Kaif (@MohammadKaif) March 25, 2017
