A reason Virat Kohli is called one of the best batsmen in the world and surely there is no doubt in it. The man in the match against Pakistan played like a lone wolf as he made sure to remain on the crease as he saw his batter fall one by one.
Kohli had to come immediately after opener Rohit Sharma got out for a duck. The right-handed batsman stayed almost till the end, but luck was not in his side as he had to depart after he scored his half-century.
As he reached his half-century, netizens praised the captain's innings as they recalled 'Vintage Kohli' innings.
