"Questions were raised about his form, intent and fitness"- Aakash Chopra on Virat Kohli's 100* in IND vs PAK CT 2025 clash
Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra heaped praise on Virat Kohli after his match-winning century in the 2025 Champions Trophy clash against Pakistan.
He pointed out that questions were raised about Kohli's form and intent ahead of the match, but the iconic batter answered with his bat. In a video on his YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra said:
"Questions were raised about his form, intent and fitness but he answered all the questions stupendously - 82nd international century and 51st ODI century. He has a personal enmity with Pakistan. Kohli's Virat avatar is suddenly seen against this team. This was a 270 to 280-run match but Pakistan couldn't reach there."
He continued:
"The first thing is that he never removes his sight from the big picture. He knows that he needs to play till the end and take the match deep because if he stays there, the pressure will not be on him but on the opposing team as you are scared of going into the forest since there is a lion there. Whether the lion eats you or not is a separate story. Until Virat Kohli is there, his fear will be there."
