No substitute to hard work and discipline: Kohli

Rediff.com27 May 2016

In the form of his life, India's star batsman Virat Kohli says the hunger to keep improving with every game keeps him motivated. "Every day is a new day. I always feel that there is a scope for improvement and with every game, I take the plus and the minus as this helps me improvise. There is no substitute to hard work and discipline," Kohli, who goes into the IPL final as the leading run getter in the tournament, told PTI in an e-mail interaction. His phenomenal phase began with the World T20 and reached a level higher in the IPL where he has already hit a record four centuries. He averages a staggering 83.54 in 15 games this season and is only 81 short of completing 1000 runs. Talking more about his remarkable consistency, Kohli said: "I went through the same stuff that every cricketer goes through when he comes in. You are insecure about your place; you make mistakes in your desperation. You want to do really well and you don't really control yourself on and off the field.
