Virat Kohli is in a good space and big runs will come from him soon: Rahul Dravid

India’s head coach Rahul Dravid said that Virat Kohli has kept the morale of the Indian side high, and is training and practicing well. Adding that Kohli has done a phenomenal job in keeping the Indian side in good space, Dravid said that it was a pleasure for him to work with the Indian Test skipper.

It’s a pleasure to work with someone like Virat. Personally, he is in a really good space. I feel there is a run of big runs coming soon, observing how he is practicing, how involved he is. Credit to him and the team, despite all that’s happening around,” said Dravid ahead of the 2nd Test match against the Proteas.
