There's no doubt that Virat Kohli is the world's best batsman. He's been in phenomenal form for the last couple of years, ever since he took on Test captaincy. The year 2016 belonged to him as he was in Bradmanesque form across all formats of the game.
Earlier today, he became the first batsman in the history of the game to score four Test double hundreds in consecutive series, beating a record previously held by Don Bradman and Rahul Dravid.

With Kohli being India's most popular sporting icon currently, it is the only natural that people want to get associated with him. One of those kinds of people who in fact want to take credit for Kohli's improved batting is religious leader Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh.

"He (Virat Kohli) was unable to convert good starts into big scores. I suggested him to practice hard and continue learning," Dera Sacha Sauda chief is quoted as saying by Bollywood gossip blog Spotboye.
The MSG star also says that Kohli is not the only cricketer whom he has advised.
Virat Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan both had come to me, seeking help to strengthen their muscles. Shikhar bola main kahin budha na ho jaun, help me gain some strength.
I told Virat that you play very well but after scoring 30-40 runs, you want to pull off a new shot - and that¡¯s where you go wrong. Virat was amazed and shocked that I knew this. I advised him that he should practice those shots before getting on the field and continue with his usual attacking game pattern. He was very happy with my advice. He called back to thank me as he moved ahead in his career. Besides him, a lot of players like Yusuf Pathan, Ashish Nehra, Zaheer Khan, Amit Mishra have also visited me for guidance.
