Virat Kohli Is The Most Australian Non-Australian Cricketer, Says Greg Chappell
As Virat Kohli: As Virat Kohli bids farewell to Test cricket, tributes have poured in from all corners of the cricketing world. Former Australia captain and ex-India coach Greg Chappell described Kohli as “the most influential figure in Indian cricket history” — even surpassing the iconic Sachin Tendulkar in terms of cultural and psychological impact.
Writing in his column for ESPNCricinfo, Chappell reflected on what he called “the end of a thunderous era”, saying Kohli’s Test career, which began in 2011 and lasted over 14 years, was “forged in grit, fire, and audacity.”
"It closes the chapter on the most transformative figure in Indian cricket since Sachin Tendulkar; perhaps Kohli even eclipses him in terms of cultural influence and psychological impact on India's cricketing identity," Chappell wrote.
