"Don't Think Steve Smith Or Joe Root Or Kane Williamson...": Ex-India Star's Massive Virat Kohli Comparison

However, former India opener Parthiv Patel has backed the underfire batter. Parthiv said that Kohli is facing the pressure of expectations because of the standards he has set for himself. Pathiv added that neither of Joe Root or Kane Williamson or Steve Smith -- the rest three members of the 'Fabulous 4' -- will be facing the kind of pressure that Kohli has been subjected to.
