Bangladesh v India - ICC Champions Trophy Semi Final

India's best batsmen can play almost all shots in the book and despite not being a habitual puller during his early years as an Indian cricketer, he has now become one of the best in the business.

However, Kohli has now added that shot to his vast array of strokes and is one of the most difficult batsmen to bowl to in the modern game.

Relentless practice and dedication towards perfecting the shot have taken Kohli's ability to play the pull shot to a different level, which is why he dishes it out whenever he feels that a short ball is there to be attacked.

Kohli unfurls the shot across formats and is rightly an expert as far as the pull is concerned.
