Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli is currently one of the best batsmen in the world. He played some exquisite shots and recorded his fastest ever 50 off 26 balls in the IPL against Rajasthan Royals.

In his debut season of IPL, playing for Sunrisers Hyderabad, Rahman won the Emerging Player of IPL as he bagged 17 wickets in 16 matches at an average of 24.76.

Mustafizur Rahman bowled well against Sunrisers and almost took the game to a Super Over with three consecutive dot balls in the final over. He ended the match with an impressive three wickets and conceded just 24 runs.

The Fizz will use his off-cutters and pace variations to get the better of Kohli. Having played Mustafizur previously, the Indian captain will try to use his experience and play the ball as late as possible. This interesting sub-plot might well decide which team comes on top.
