Virat Kohli shouldn't curb his aggro: Rahul Dravid

CHENNAI: Virat Kohli's plan to spend quality time in the middle before the Sri Lanka tour was cut short by Australia 'A', with the Test skipper getting out early in both innings. India 'A' coach Rahul Dravid, though, says there is no cause for worry.
"Virat had not played for over a month before coming here. I think he has spent a good amount of time in the middle. Virat is very keen to perform and is working hard at the nets," Dravid said.
The former India captain also said that Virat should not look to curb his aggressive intent as captain. "You need to be who you are. The beauty of this game is that it allows different people to succeed. Most people who succeed over a period of time are aggressive. They show it differently. Some are more expressive and some are not. Virat is expressive by nature and he should not curb this approach," said Dravid.
On Cheteshwar Pujara's declining form, Dravid said, "I don't think there are any major issues with his batting. He needs a bit of confidence. Batting for some time in the middle will help him. Hopefully, he will get a chance to score runs in the practice match before the Test series against Sri Lanka and that will help him to get going," said Dravid.
