#4 Ponting believes Kohli can be 'rattled'

"Mitchell Johnson definitely rattled him a few times"

Former Australian captain Ricky Ponting has urged the Australians to 'get under the skin' of Virat Kohli, who he believes can be 'rattled'. He also said that there have been instances in the past when Kohli has looked rattled after hostility was shown against him.

"Well, he might. I don't necessarily believe that he is someone you shouldn't try to get under his skin. I have seen him rattled", Ponting told cricket.com.au.

"Mitchell Johnson definitely rattled him a few times with some good hostile bowling and some good hostile body language around him. So, I would not sit back and let anyone bully,"

"The way we go about playing cricket, especially at home, it is about good strong body language. That is the way Australians have always played their best."
