Virat Kohli’s Yo-Yo test record Broken
One of the fittest cricket players of the Indian Cricket team is Virat Kohli but in the past, a few cricketers try to surpass his yo yo test score. The highest score has observed by the Mayank Dagar, who belongs to Himachal Pradesh. These players have performed in matches with their fitness and fielding and not only with bat and ball. The modern-day fitness algorithms are crystal clear and they have very strict rules for fitness. The test is known as the Yo Yo test. When Suresh Rana failed to clear the fitness test in the year 2016, then this buzzword yo-yo test became the talking point. He was the first great cricketer who failed this test and later on, followed by Yuvraj Singh, Washington Sundar, and AmbatRayudu.
As it is has made mandatory by BCCI to claim the spot in team India by clearing the yo-yo test. It came into hot topics as the Indian team is playing a huge number of cricket matches. The player has to their hundred percent in each match and it is compulsory to pass the yo-yo test for fitness as an important criterion. This fitness test is also known as the Multi-stage fitness test or the beep test. It has proven the endurance and fitness of a player. Three cones are there such as a, b, and c place at a certain distance of five meters, and twenty meters. The test begins with cone B. The yo-yo test score of Kohli was registered at 19 when the fast bowler of Pakistan Hasan Ali has scored a 20 and it became a headline. Such comparisons are always made between Virat Kohli and Hasan Ali. But Hasan Ali said folks may be comparing the yo-yo test score of both of us but he is still the fittest player.
After the tournament with West Indies in 2017, Virat Kohli and the team management decided to make the fitness as the priority to revolutionize the Indian Cricket. Therefore, they took the first step and make the Yo-Yo test as the first and compulsory step for the selection of the Indian team. Now, fitness test is one of the criteria of the National team and the players who touch the desired mark are getting priority for the selection test. Some have scaled the fitness score of Virat Kohli and it includes Manish Pandey, Mayank Daggar, and Karun Nair. Even the ex-hockey player Sardar Singh leapfrog the yo-yo test score of Virat Kohli by touching new heights of 21.4.
