Fans were mighty impressed with Kohli' hard work to keep his body fit. He gets slammed when runs do not come easily. But when it comes to following a strong work ethic, there is no matching Kohli. Kohli collected lakhs of 'Likes' on this post on Insta, including those of his teammates Yuzvendra Chahal and wife Anushka Sharma.
