We seen Virat Kohli getting his century off just 63 vs SRH the other day. And today he again got a century in just 60 vs GT today.
It is a huge achievement to get a century in a T20 match, and this guy has done it in back to back matches when his team is in a do or die situation.
He struggled getting runs in IPL last year and this year not just he got runs but also is currently in Top 5 for highest run scorers. Finally the king is back to claim his throne. Virat Kohli got 2 centuries and 6 half centuries this season.
Even though Virat Kohli had a brilliant season for scoring runs, initially he was criticized for his strike rate. It was also pointed out that he slows down when he is batting on his 40s. These brought some questions by some fans whether Virat Kohli was even suitable for this format.
However, in the last 2 matches Kohli has proven that he is very much capable to play well in T20I. Not just he can score runs, he can also do it with a good strike rate.
Personally my fav T20I knock of Kohli was his 82*(53) vs Pakistan this year where he already showed his ability in this format and how he chased down the target successfully when the game seemed completely over for India at one point.
Hopefully we can enjoy more of these kind of knocks from Kohli in IPL and T20I in the future.
