'He has been phenomenal despite all the noise around': Dravid lauds Virat Kohli

Team India head coach Rahul Dravid has spoken highly of Virat Kohli's leadership, which he said helped keep the team's morale high during India's tour of South Africa.

Dravid said that with all the noise around other issues, Virat has been absolutely phenomenal over the last 20 days with the way he has trained and connected with the group. 'He has been a fantastic leader and a really good captain and that has helped in creating a good space,' added the coach.

Dravid also said that it was just a matter of time that Virat ended his dry run with the bat and gets to the much-talked-about 71st international hundred. 'I do feel that there is a big run of scores coming from him just the way he has been preparing and led the way,' Dravid further added.
