Jaipur, May 18 (CRICKETNMORE): Paddy Upton, former mental health and conditioning coach of the Indian cricket team during Gary Kirstens tenure as coach, saw India skipper Virat Kohli rise through the ranks and the Rajasthan Royals coach believes that while there have been many talented batsmen who have played for India, what set Kohli apart is his ability to translate the talent to performance.

"We definitely saw the potential (in 2011) but there is a lot of potential in India and across the world. Like Kohli, many other cricketers had the potential but it's just amazing to watch how he has translated his potential to effectively being the number one batsman in the world," Upton said.
