Virat, the King of Cricket:
Virat Kohli is undoubtedly one of the greatest batters of all time. His story of rising in Delhi to conquering the World is truly inspiring. With numerous records, hunger for wins and aggression make him different from others. He won the under19 World Cup in 2008. He is exceptional with his batting techniques. He has become the fastest player to score 26000 runs in international cricket. He surpassed Sachin Tendulkar’s record this year. From his debut in 2008 to till date, Kohli was untouchable in terms of record. In highs and lows, he stands tall in all situations.
Another exceptional quality of him is chasing. He called chase master. He was the highest Indian run-scorer for consecutive three years from 2010-2011. In test cricket, Virat is something else. Red ball cricket pulls out the best out of him. He has some excellent records in test format. After taking charge as the test captain, he changed the face of the Indian team.
In this World Cup, he is in great form. He has continued his form right from the Asia Cup. He played a match-winning knock of 85 runs against Australia in the first match of the World Cup. Against Bangladesh, he played an unbeaten knock of 103 runs. Now it is the time for the clash against South Africa. Fans are waiting to witness a sensational knock from King Kohli.
