Ex-Indian spinner, Amit Mishra has spoken about the big difference in the nature between Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. The leg-spinner pointed out that Kohli does not have many friends within the Indian team for a reason, and stated that “fame and power” has changed him.
Speaking on Youtuber Shubhankar Mishra’s show ‘Unplugged’, Mishra revealed that a difference in nature between Kohli and Rohit is the reason why the former has fewer friends in the team.
“Not everyone to be very honest. As a cricketer, I respect him a lot, but I don’t share the same equation with him as I used to,” said Mishra. “Why does Virat have less friends? His and Rohit’s natures are different,” he said.
“I haven’t been part of the Indian team in years. Still when I meet Rohit during the IPL or any other event, he is always joking with me. I don’t need to think what he will think,” he added.
The host also asked Mishra whether Kohli has changed and he responded in the affirmative.
“I have seen Virat change a lot. We had almost stopped talking. When you get fame and power, some people think that others are reaching out to them only for a purpose,” Mishra said.
