Virat Kohli- Very fine talent!

Played brilliantly at the WACA this week.

Soon he will be India's best batsman and one of the best in the world.

Yes; but that's as much due to the decline of others.

I see a little bit of a young Nasser Hussain in him. Fiery lad. Might end up being the man to drag Indian cricket of the mat.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if he's their test captain by the end of the year.

Decent batsman, massive twat.

Yeah, exactly like Nasser at the same age then.

He's a chance of maturing, and channelling that anger into the team's best interests.

He's a chance of immaturing, and channelling that anger into a brain tumour as well. Doesn't mean he hasn't been one helluva dickface so far in his life

Massively overrated twat, but he has to play considering the future. Captain? Hopefully not.

My thoughts precisely.

Attitude wise ..... an absolute w**ker ...
Batting wise .... okay-ish.
Captain material .... ? B*llocks.

There have been PLENTY of tossers who have turned out to be great batsmen AND captain their Country. Allan Border, Steve Waugh, Sourav Ganguly, Nasser Hussain, Graeme Smith, Sunil Gavaskar, Ricky Ponting, Michael Clarke......

Kohli is a rough around the edges Gen Y tosser with a stack of talent and ambition. Nothing to stop him from maturing significantly in the next five years to become India's captain.

I am not sure Border is a tosser.

He was in 1989 when he ordered his players not to be chummy with the English players.

He needn't have bothered - they wouldn't have had the time to get chummy with all 31 of them....

Some of the leg side shots were the best that i have seen OUTSIDE of Hyderabadi batsmen(Laxman and Azhar)

kohli is almost certain to become captain at some point. more so than any of the other youngsters

He is already India's finest batsman!

garquen sad when as Indian batsman is hailed as the next superstar for averaging 37.50 on a tour of Oz

It's the fickle finger of fate, innit?

Put in context though, he's one of the few Indian players who's reputation has been enhanced on this tour of Aus, along with Yadav, Saha and possibly Ashwin. Those four can all only continue to get better from here.

as can the team. surely

His attitude is certainly quite poor! Looks like some one who is always looking for a lame fight but what a batsman

One of the greatest chases in the history of the ODI game engineered by Kohli

Fairly soon he will be the best batsman in the world so i would think now is the time for him to start behaving maturely.
Time to cut down unnecessary curse words while on the field.

Tis good that he's playing well, much as I don't like his attitude (or his selection ahead of Sharma at the time), he's done well and needed for the future of the team.

He is already India's best batsman and the best ODI batsman in the world but i wonder how he does with added responsibility due to the retirement of 2 legends.

Needs more than just one test century to be the best Indian batsman.
