Virat Kohli is an important player for India. If India wants to win a trophy, they need Virat Kohli to be in top form, and the good news is that Kohli has regained his form and looked good in the series against Australia and South Africa.

The former Indian skipper has set a fitness culture in the entire cricketing world. Be it diet regimes or intense workout sessions, Kohli is a beast.  He took to his Instagram handle and posted a video where he was spotted slogging in the gym ahead of the T20 World Cup. 

"Mobility is key”, he captioned. Kohli also attributed his teammate Suryakumar Yadav for recording the video.
