The Virat Kohli factor

CRICKET-IRL-IND-T20

Without a doubt, Indian skipper Virat Kohli is the best international batsman across all three formats and he has shown us why he is a proven match-winner for India as he has won a lot of games for his team single-handedly.

If England defend a score in the upcoming series, they would like to see the back of Kohli at the earliest as the champion chaser has given them nightmares when he, along with Kedar Jadhav snatched a win for India from the jaws of defeat chasing a mammoth 350.

Just because of his Kohliesque numbers while chasing, it doesn't mean that he is a pushover when India bat first as he is equally good when his team sets a target too. A player of Kohli's calibre, who has the potential to take his team to victory out of nowhere, will look to do what he does the best in the upcoming series - score runs and knock the opposition out.
