Virat Kohli Can Never be Team’s Role Model

These days it is hip to be a blind fan of Cricketer Virat Kohli. Recently I saw a newspaper article which said that Virat Kohli should be projected as a “role model” in front of other team mates. I take it for granted that there would be others who think on the same lines. I can’t believe how they ignore one side of Virat which should never be ignored when it comes to project a “role model”. 

I disagree that Kohli could be thought of as a “role model” for other players. I think so because of Kohli’s temper problem which he calls aggression and thinks that playing with words can spin his weakness into his strength. After every few matches, he gets a warning or a fee cut for his unbecoming behavior or heated arguments with opponents on the field.
I also remember his temper during the crucial match during last ODI world cup – which had costed him his wicket which triggered a panic in the batting line and team collapsed.
According to my view, Kohli should be kept under watch for his temper problem and should never be projected as a role model since it can impact what other team members think about their own ideal behavior.
