Virat Kohli is a top-class consummate batsman and player, as evidenced by his performance in the current IPL 26. He plays every shot with complete science and mastery over the ball. Whether the ball coming towards him is a spin or a pace ball, he knows what position to take, how to adjust his bat and score a boundary. And, he does this so effortlessly.
It is almost if a machine or a robot is batting. Virat’s silky-smooth prowess with the bat is the result of painstaking practice during the earlier years. It his ceaseless dedication and commitment to his art which gives him this fluency. At times, his batting strokes are sheer poetry in motion.
I hope Virat Kohli will play many more years, so that we can admire and enjoy one of the greatest cricketers of all time. India has ample cricket talent, enough for six teams. In any competitive situation, politics in selection also plays a part. So I hope, iconic players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will not be sidelined due to any pressures. Let the best batsmen shine gloriously.
