Watch: Virat Kohli hits well-timed sixes with poise

Virat Kohli has become a run-machine in recent times. His form was spectacular in Australia and he continued his golden run in the Asia Cup T20 as well. His ability to assess match situations is secondary to none and he has become Mr. Dependable for the Men in Blue. The manner in which he guided the team home under tremendous pressure against Pakistan and Australia speaks volumes about the man’s ability and composure.

Kohli is renowned for his timing and placement. His ability to finds gaps along the ground is more popular than his six hitting ability however he isn’t a slouch at the latter either. He keeps a still head when dancing down the track that enables him to execute his lofted shots with ease. Hitting sixes is more about timing than power and Kohli times the ball as well as anybody in world cricket.

Kohli is the backbone of Team India’s batting line-up. His brilliant performances in recent series have been instrumental to the team’s success. Kohli was the highest run scorer in the 2014 edition of the World T20 and is third on the list in the ongoing edition. He has played only 4 matches and scored 184 runs at a Bradmanesque average of 92.00. The others above him in the list have played more matches owing to the qualifying rounds ahead of the Super 10 stage. He needs 111 more runs to overtake Tamim Iqbal who tops the batting charts as of now.

When in flow Kohli is a brilliant batsman to watch. The world knows about his exploits in a run-chase. He keeps producing astonishing innings with remarkable consistency and just keeps raising the bar for batsmanship. India will hope that he plays many more memorable knocks and continues to enthral fans with his amazing batting.
