Team India's veteran batsman Virat Kohli continues to be in the headlines. On the one hand, his form is not with him, on the other hand, he was heavily criticized in the cricket world for hitting Australia's debutant Sam Constants with his shoulder. This behavior of Virat with the 19 year old young player caught everyone's attention. Australia's veteran players attacked Virat fiercely regarding this. Former Australian cricketer Kerry O'Keefe also did not delay in attacking Virat and even used abusive language against the Indian legend. But now Kerry O'Keefe has apologized to Virat Kohli.
Kerry O'Keefe had targeted Virat Kohli in the controversy regarding the collision between Virat Kohli and Sam Constants. While making controversial comments on Virat, he had said on Thursday, 'Kohli has built his entire career on ego. Suddenly, he recognized it in a debutante and expressed his displeasure over it'.
Now apologizing to Virat, Kerry said, 'I want to apologize for calling Virat Kohli's behavior arrogant. I should not have said that he has ego. He plays his cricket. I think when he saw another player showing the same swag as him, he got a bit angry and reacted in the same manner, Kohli is a passionate cricketer and his aggression is what makes him a competitive cricketer.
