A Game of Thrones for the CricFans

- By Atul Agarwal Not everyone is born with exemplary leadership abilities. It comes naturally to some than others, though it is really difficult to find someone who possesses this extraordinary skill. A leader is someone who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way. The Indian Cricket Team has unfailingly been blessed with versatile foremen. From Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi in the 1960s, Sunil Gavaskar in the 1970s, Kapil Dev in the 1980s, Mohammad Azharuddin in the 1990s, Saurav Ganguly in the early-2000s, to M S Dhoni in the last decade, we’ve had men who truly turned out to be the true talisman for their nation.

In a career span of 10 years, he has achieved greater heights than what the greats of the game couldn’t do in their entire career. Virat Kohli, the captain of Indian cricket team in all formats likes to lead from the front and always sets a high bar for other players. He has worked on his fitness level over the years which has brought a noticeable change in his game.
