Terrified? Well don’t be. The most amazing and world-class batsman of history, Late Sir Donald Bradman is not returning from his heavenly abode, where left for almost two decades ago. We are talking of the Indian Bradman-in-progress, which is showing his class on the Indian pitches in Indian Premier League. Any guesses? Yes. You are absolutely correct. We are talking about Virat Kohli, one of the finest batsmen that the Indian Cricket History has ever produced. If you are a true cricket fan, you have to bow before this cricketing star that is setting up milestones, one after the other, which are very difficult for the upcoming cricketers to reach.

It was not a fine evening in Bangalore and the Chinnaswamy stadium was having its utmost blessings from the Rain God. The ankle-deep water in the ground was not allowing the play to happen until, a serious effort was shown by the ground staff, clearing all the water from it and the overs were limited to 15 for each side by the match referee. After this the toss allowed Royal Challengers Bangalore to bat first, in which the bats of Virat Kohli and destructive Chris Gayle rained cats and dogs. This Caribbean batsman made a blazing 73 out of 32 balls which included 4 fours and 8 sixes. But the show was stolen by the Indian batsman who made yet another ton, a quickfire 113 runs out of 50 balls with 12 fours and 8 massive sixes.

Although he had a hint of injury in his hand, he did not stop to look at it. This win was very crucial for the team, which earned them 2 points to stay in the battle of playoffs. The skipper got those handsomely and his team posted a total of 215 runs on the boards against their competitors Kings IX Punjab who went 82 runs short of achieving it in the rain-affected match getting their result by the Duckworth-Lewis method.

This scintillating batsman of India is on the verge of yet another landmark. He has now scored 865 runs this IPL with 5 tons, the most by any batsman in any season of IPL and is just 135 runs short of a special milestone, 1000 runs in a single season. We wish him luck for this and pray that he scores many more of these in coming years.
