[Saba Sports News] Virat Kohli has long been a source of inspiration not just for budding cricketers but also for individuals from various fields, including those preparing for highly competitive exams.
His dedication to the game and fitness has encouraged many to adopt hard work as their standard approach. Kohli’s influence extends beyond sports, offering motivation and a welcome distraction to those facing intense pressures, such as students preparing for the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) exams.
The UPSC announced the results of the 2023 Civil Services Examination (CSE) on April 16, 2024. Donuru Ananya Reddy from Mahabubnagar, Telangana, achieved the third rank. A recent video interview of Reddy, which has gone viral on social media platform X, features her acknowledging Virat Kohli as her inspiration. “Virat Kohli, he is my favourite player, and there’s a kind of inspiration and never-give-up attitude he has. The discipline and his work ethic are major takeaways from Kohli, that’s why he is inspiring,” Reddy mentioned in the interview.
Meanwhile, the former Indian cricket team captain Kohli, despite facing scrutiny and rumors of being sidelined for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024 due to his declining strike rate, demonstrated his prowess with a match-winning performance for Royal Challengers Bengaluru against Punjab Kings. He jovially addressed his critics post-match, affirming, “I’ve still got it, I guess,” showcasing his enduring skill and resilience in the sport.
