In the world of cricket, where opinions and criticisms flow freely, the sensitivity of players to such comments often becomes a topic of discussion. This brings us to the intriguing case of Virat Kohli, one of India's most celebrated batters, and his relationship with criticism.
The Sensitivity Factor
Former Indian batter Sanjay Manjrekar, known for his candid commentary, has shed light on Kohli's sensitivity to criticism. Despite Kohli's public statements about not paying attention to outside noise, Manjrekar claims that Kohli is well aware of what is said about him. He recounts an experience where Kohli's behavior towards him at the toss suddenly became cold, leading Manjrekar to believe that Kohli had heard something negative.
"He's very sensitive to criticism... I think he gets to know about what's being said about him." - Sanjay Manjrekar
This sensitivity, according to Manjrekar, can be a double-edged sword. While it may spur Kohli on to achieve greater feats, such as his next century, it also highlights the impact that public opinion can have on a player's mindset.
