Kolkata: Former captain Sourav Ganguly on Wednesday said current India skipper Virat Kohli’s aggression on and off the field was two times more his own. “Virat never leaves an inch to the opposition," Ganguly said.

Going further, Ganguly compared Virat's temperament to that of former Atletico de Kolkata coach Antonio Habas, saying “temperament of both Virat and Habas are of similar nature, which draws spectators to the stadium.”

Ganguly was all praise for Virat's performance, especially his leadership of the Indian team in clinching the ongoing home Test series against England and the double hundred he hit in the fourth Test in Mumbai. Ganguly, as the India captain, was known to be an aggressive leader.
