“As fit as Virat…” former Pakistan cricketer said on Kohli’s fitness

In the second Test match between India and West Indies (IND vs WI 2nd Test), Virat Kohli completed his 76th international century. While playing in his 500th match, Kohli broke many records. During this, former Pakistan cricketer Salman Butt has described Kohli as the fittest cricketer. He believes that Virat cannot be compared to other cricketers in terms of fitness. In this he is at the top. Significantly, Virat has given a good introduction of his fitness even in the recently scored century. Kohli completed the maximum runs in his innings of 121 runs only by running. More than the boundary, Kohli likes to run between the wickets.

Salman Butt said on his YouTube channel that “Virat Kohli is not only fit, but he is the fittest. When you talk about the top three fittest men in cricket, he will be there. When it comes to fitness, he can be on top.”

Salman said that “It depends on the commitment, discipline and the person himself. You cannot force anyone to do this. Kohli has a commitment to himself. It is not that he does it on the instructions of the coach. Because if the coach had done this, he would have told everyone the secret of this fitness. The entire Indian team is not as fit as Virat. Some players are not fit at all. They said that “Ravindra Jadeja is fit and MS Dhoni is fit too. It depends on you. Just look at Babar Azam. I have seen him practicing alone.”

Virat Kohli is the first player to score a century in his 500th match. He said after scoring a century that “My century was satisfactory because I had to work hard at the crease. The outfield was very slow. That’s why I was patient and took my time.” He has scored 76 centuries and 131 half-centuries in 559 innings, with a best score of 254*.
