The 34-year old is one of the most prominent batters in world cricket today and despite the poor form off late, Kohli continues to shatter cricketing records at international level. 

Kohli is currently at 76 international centuries and is behind only Sachin Tendulkar in the list. Many pundits and experts have opined that Kohli might go on to break many cricketing records but Sobers has a different opinion.

Sobers feels that Virat Kohli has got the right temperament and approach in his batting but stated that he cannot always succeed.

"I think he is a good player. He has got the right approach, right attitude, and he plays very well. I've never been surprised by the amount of runs he makes," Sobers was quoted in Revsportz.

When quizzed whether if Kohli can go on to break records in cricket, Sobers had a word of caution.

"Well, I wouldn't say that because sometimes the game can become very funny. You can have some bowlers that are good too.

"And you have players who can do certain things with the ball at times that you don't even think about. You have been playing often against these types of players, and if you are good enough, eventually you will rise."
