And yet, it’s his remarkable restraint at what many perceive as condescension at a post-match press conference after India’s loss to England in the third test that is now drawing praises on social media.

Kohli, who’s known to lose his temper now and again at the odd post-match press conference, remarkably kept his cool at this, saying only: “Okay Thanks”.
