Virat Kohli has taken Indian cricket forward ever since MS Dhoni stepped down as the skipper of the limited overs format in January 2017. Kohli led India to the finals of Champions trophy 2017 where they lost to arch-rivals Pakistan and ended as the runner-ups. Since then Virat successfully led India to limited over series victory in South Africa and Australia at their own den.
The Indian skipper has now credited his marriage that has improved his captaincy skills. While speaking to Cricket Insider host Ridhima Pathak, Virat said that marriage brings lot of responsibilities which has benefited his leadership skills.
“You become more responsible (after marriage). It’s very different from the responsibility you had in your life. You start understanding things much better and you start putting things into perspective a lot more. I have become a lot more responsible. That helps you in captaincy as well. It’s only improved my captaincy and me as a human being and as a player,” Virat said.
Virat married Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma on December 11 in 2017 in a private ceremony in Italy after dating for several years.
