Virat Kohli: Indian cricket team’s veteran batsman Virat Kohli has made such a revelation about his mental condition, which has surprised the fans. Recently, Virat Kohli has revealed that even during the most successful phase of his career, he struggled with mental problems like imposter syndrome for a long time. During this time he kept doubting his own abilities. He felt that he was not as good a player as people thought him to be.
Virat Kohli made a big revelation
In fact, while speaking at the RCB Innovation Lab Indian Sports Summit Powered by Leaders held in Bengaluru recently, King Kohli said that the pressure of captaincy and continuous performance was gradually affecting his mental health. Virat, who was aggressive and confident on the field, was breaking from within. The constant pressure of captaincy had made him mentally tired. Apart from this, he admitted that while performing the responsibilities of all three formats, he had become completely ‘mentally drained’. Many times he started doubting himself.
How did Rahul Dravid and Vikram Rathore become the support?
In this difficult period, Team India’s former head coach Rahul Dravid and batting coach Vikram Rathore became the biggest support for Virat Kohli. Virat revealed that both of them took care of him not only as a player but also as a human being. Kohli told that after leaving the captaincy, he was trying to regain control and explain himself. During that time Dravid and Rathore gave him a chance to play freely. Virat believes that both of them gave him a chance to get out of the pressure. It was only with the support of Dravid and Rathore that he could feel the joy of cricket again.
What is imposter syndrome?
Impostor syndrome is a psychological condition in which a person continues to doubt his abilities and successes. Despite millions of efforts and achievements, a person always has this fear.
It remains that he is behaving like an impostor and one day everyone will know his truth. Even if he has strong evidence of his success.
