This fact has been vouched for many times in the past by Team India Director Ravi Shastri, but Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) trainer went on to compare Kohli with Novak Djokovic, saying that the latter needs to "catch up" with India's batting sensation.

Shankar Basu, the strength and conditioning coach, of RCB believes Kohli is currently fitter than the 10-time Grand Slam winner and current world No. 1."I have always told him [Kohli] that Novak Djokovic should be his target. 

Now, I feel that Djokovic should be targeting Kohli; he definitely has some catching-up to do," Basu told Cricbuzz."Virat Kohli is a total professional cricketer right from the way he eats and trains to the way he takes care of his body. 

I have seen him and his transition from the U-19 level and he has taken fitness to another level," Basu added.Kohli is currently leading RCB in Season 9 of the Indian Premier League.

Virat Kohli is an Indian international cricketer. He is a right-handed batsman and occasional right-arm medium pace bowler. He is the current captain of the Indian Cricket Team!
