Australian spin bowler Adam Zampa has made a big disclosure about the behavior of Virat Kohli. Jampa said that Kohli is quite cool outside the field and his behavior is completely opposite to that of the cricket field.
Adam Zampa was part of the Royal Challengers Bangalore squad in the IPL this season and shared the dressing room with Virat.
- zampa has now dismissed Kohli four times in ODIs while getting the better of him twice in T20Is.

In a recent interview, Zampa told Sydney Morning Herald, that he queried about two players in a tweet of Kane Richardson, saying he did not know them and those two players were Virat Kohli and AB De Villiers. Later that year, he faced Virat Kohli in a game where his last ball of the over got smacked for a boundary by Kohli, with the Indian captain telling him to keep a distance from Twitter.

“I replied in a typical manner back then. That was just taking the piss at them. ‘Who are they, mate?’ The Indian fans did not let me live it down. Virat had obviously seen it.”
“I played my debut back in the day and bowled an over to him. The last ball of the over he smacked it for four, came down to me and said, ‘Stay a long way away from Twitter, mate’. I was like, ‘Geezers, this bloke reads everything on Twitter’. He went on to get 120 (108*) that day. I stoked the fire.”
Zampa, who will be bowling to Kohli very soon in the upcoming ODI series between Australia and India, recalled how Kohli made him feel comfortable right from the first day he arrived in Dubai to join the Royal Challengers squad.

“Zamps, here’s the $15 off voucher at a vegan restaurant from Deliveroo. It’s a really good restaurant,” read the message that Kohli sent to Zampa on Day 1.
“It was the first day I arrived [and] he WhatsApped me. I didn’t have his number. He made it as if we’ve known each other forever,” Zampa was quoted as saying by The Sydney Morning Herald.
Zampa then went on to add that Kohli is completely different from what he is made out to be on the outside.
“He’s absolutely not what you see on the cricket field. He always brings his intensity to training and the game; virat kohli loves competition, he hates losing as much as anyone. He probably shows it more than anyone.

virat talks about coffee, travelling, food
Zampa also recalled how Kohli recommended a meat Burger to him even though he is a vegetarian himself. They also bonded over coffee, something which Zampa is extremely passionate about.
“He talks about coffee, travelling, food ‘Zamps, do you want a Beyond Meat burger?’ because he’s a vegetarian himself. He’s a really cultured guy. He’s good to talk to, good fun.
“One night he took me aside and talked to me about his travels through Nepal. He’s always talking to me about his new coffee machine. He’s a pretty normal bloke. The one thing you take away from spending time with those guys is they’re as much of a human being as you are,” Zampa said.
