Virat Kohli, the superstar of the game, highest run-getter in IPL and much more. Virat Kohli has redefined cricket since the day he walked on to that the 22 yards. He has scored more than 5400 runs at an average of over 37, which tells us how difficult it is to get him out even in T20 cricket.

The RCB captain has a lot of gears in his engine and more often than not his car reaches the highest one in IPL. Whether he opens the innings or bats at No. 3, his role of staying till the end and playing the long innings remains the same. With a strike rate of more than 130 and 190 sixes in IPL, his ability to transform his innings in the latter part of the 20 overs tells us about his physical and strength a lot.

The breakthrough year in IPL came in 2016 when he scored 973 runs in a single season with 4 tons to his name. In total, he has scored 5 centuries by now with 36 fifties. The only things Virat is yet to achieve is winning an IPL title for his team. He has played all the IPL season for RCB only and would look forward to winning a season for them soon and with this year IPL expected to be played in UAE, RCB, the spin heavy side, surely has a chance this time.
