“The representation of a severe condition like depression is very well understood by Virat. He’s spoken openly on the mental challenges of playing the sport at the highest level and he hasn’t shied away from admitting them.

“Virat for one will never feel alone when he’s around people who love and support him. That’s where he has got his mental strength from. Every top athlete has gone through mental challenges of dealing with pressures and expectations that come with the positions they are at. Depression is too big and significant a term to be used so loosely,” the CEO of Cornerstone, the company which manages Kohli further said.
Speaking about his mental health and the pressures of being a top level athlete, Virat Kohli revealed that it was important to stay in touch with one’s inner self. The 33-year-old, who gave away all forms of captaincy in the last 9 months, said that he at times felt ‘alone’ despite being in a room full of people who love and support him.
