Harbhajan Singh reveals how he motivated young Virat Kohli to surpass Rahul Dravid's run record

During a recent podcast appearance, former Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh recalled a conversation from Virat Kohli's international debut tour in 2008 against Sri Lanka. Impressed by the young batter's fifty against Ajantha Mendis, Harbhajan challenged Kohli to surpass Rahul Dravid's career run tally to fully justify his immense potential.

Kohli has since eclipsed Dravid's mark, accumulating over twenty-eight thousand international runs while completely transforming fitness standards within the national squad. Harbhajan praised the veteran batsman's unwavering hunger, passion, and drive to secure victories for India as the key traits setting him apart from his peers.
