There is no doubt in the fact that Virat Kohli is one of the best batsmen in the world if not the best. The cricketing fans and Pundits have already acknowledged this fact for quite some time. He has an unmatched fanbase across the globe who love him for his cricket. The overall following that he has is unmatched, as he recently became the most talked-about cricketer on Social Media.
Further, one quality that the Indian skipper is known for is his timing. Keeping that in mind, a video of Virat Kohli is now going viral.
The Video Of Virat Kohli That Is Going Viral On Social Media
This video from 2017 has caught the attention of the fans. It is of a game between the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and the Delhi Daredevils (DD). The latter is a former franchise in the Indian Premier League (IPL) that does not exist anymore.
It has been replaced by the newly formed team called the Delhi Capitals (DC). Below is the video of the shot that depicts Virat Kohli’s brilliant timing.
The shot is off a delivery by DD’s Corey Anderson, back in 2017. It was more of a defensive shot with a push. It clearly depicts how good Virat Kohli is, with regards to timing the ball.
He just slides into it and pushes it to the fence. The reaction from the DD bench is really good too. Daniel Vettori can also be seen, rather surprised, as to how that went for a six.
RCB And The Tragic IPL Story
The Royal Challengers Bangalore have not had the best of times in the IPL. The recently concluded tournament (IPL 2020) was a good chance for them to make something happen. Virat Kohli and co. started off the campaign rather positively as well.
They could have really made an impact on the competition in Dubai. However, like the previous seasons, it all ended in the top-four (knockout stages). They were knocked out of the tournament by the Sunrisers Hyderabad. David Warner’s team was too good for them and they had to go home disappointed once again.
What Next For RCB And Virat Kohli In IPL 2021?
With that being said now, the IPL 2021 tournament will be quite important for Virat Kohli and his side. There were be a potential mega-auction in January 2021 and the number of teams could be ten. This means that the chances of RCB having a better draw are high.
They have already their star players in Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers and will now look to add more key players. Their batting has not really been a problem over the years. However, they have struggled with the bowling at times. Also, getting the perfect balance to the side has been a major problem.
RCB will be hoping to resolve these issues in the upcoming year. It could be a huge event that will be held once again in India. Virat Kohli will be keen on getting things right this time. His captaincy has already been criticized a lot and he will want to turn things around. Whether he can actually do that or not now, remains to be seen. Let’s wait and watch, as to see what happens!!
