He had also credited former India coach Duncan Fletcher in motivating him to transform himself.

“Duncan told me once that he feels cricket is the most unprofessional of professional sports,” he had told The Telegraph last year.

Virat Kohli subsequently changed his diet and workout routine himself following Fletcher’s advice, losing a significant amount of weight over the last few years.
