Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli’s humongous appetite for scoring runs is no hidden secret. Kohli has become India’s run-scoring machine in red ball cricket. He has a well sorted out technique and a wide array of shots in his armoury to torment any bowling attack. What sets Kohli apart from the rest of his colleagues is his brilliant 50 to 100 conversion rate. Once he gets into his zone, he makes it count with some stellar tons for his country.

It is notable that Kohli had a horrid Test series against England in 2014 but he came back strongly to score four spectacular tons against the Australians. Since taking over as the Indian Test captain, he has added an extra bit of responsibility on his shoulders and has certainly established himself as India’s frontline batsman in overseas conditions.

Kohli’s mental fortitude and never say die attitude helps him cope up with failures and came back strongly.
