People's Captain! Virat Kohli asking Eden Gardens crowd get louder and cheer for India -WATCH

New Delhi: Indian skipper Virat Kohli is known worldwide for his fiery attitude - be it for his batting, fielding or even the attack-minded captaincy.

The 27-year-old is widely recognised as one of the most competitive players on the 22-yard pitch field. Losing is not even an option for for the Delhi-born batsman. Sometimes, even 100% is not good enough from his perspective as keeps striving for more.

Not just players, Kohli demands more passion from fans too, and not see his players taking their foot off the gas at any moment in the match. (READ: LIVE Cricket Score: India vs New Zealand, 2nd Test, Day 4)

The hot-headed batsman had been part of many verbal-duels with the opposition players. One phenomenal thing about Virat is his sportsmanship as he always respects the oppostion players.

India have set a target of 376 for visiting New Zealand in the 2nd Test.

Virat has not let his fans down since taking over the responsibility of captaining the test side. He led the Indian side in 16 Test matches, only 2 of them were not in the favour of Kohli.

The right-handed took the charge of captaincy from MS Dhoni, after he retired from the long-format of the game.
Currently, India are fighting for the number one spot in ICC Test rankings. A victory in the 2nd Test match will dethrone their arch-rivals Pakistan from number one position.
