Amit Mishra's Explosive Claim About Virat Kohli

Recently in his interview, Amit Mishra made shocking claims about the former Indian cricket team captain that how he was changed over the years after he became the captain of Indian cricket team. "I have seen Virat change a lot. We had almost stopped talking. When you get fame and power, they think people are reaching out to them for a purpose. I was never one of those. I have known Cheeku since the time he was 14, when he used to eat samosas, when he needed pizza every night. But there is a huge difference in the Cheeku I knew and Virat Kohli the captain," he said.

He further elaborated how Virat Kohli is left with fewer friends in the Indian cricket team, in contrast, he talked about Rohit Sharma's nature as well. He said, "I won't lie. As a cricketer, I respect him a lot, but I don't share the same equation with him as I used to. Why does Virat have less friends? His and Rohit's natures are different. I'll tell you the best thing about Rohit. When I met him the first day and when I meet him today, he is the same person. So will you relate to him more or with someone who changes according to the situation?"
