Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Virat Kohli was the flavour of the IPL this season. The Delhi lad almost single-handedly guided his team to the title clash on the back of some unbelievable knocks. Kohli set numerous records this season which won't broken any time soon for sure u could check out this page for more stats stats@cricbuzz . Virat came into the tournament in a rich vein of form, helping India to the Asia Cup triumph and guiding the side to a World T20 semi-final which India lost to eventual champions West Indies. And he hasn’t looked back since the Asia Cup going from strength to strength in each game he has played and has almost made the Orange Cap (the leading run scorer in a season of the IPL is awarded the Orange Cap) his own.
The culmination of his hard work, hunger for runs and love for the game is bearing fruit and how. Kohli has been an unstoppable force in 2016 and he still has five more Test matches to go this year. The rate at which he has been scoring runs this year has been tremendous, to say the least.
England star Joe Root is the leading run-scorer in international cricket this year, followed by Kohli in second position. But it's the way Kohli scores his runs which makes him stand out from his competitors. Root's former teammate and England great Kevin Pietersen also says that even though Root has scored more runs than Kohli in 2016, there is still no comparison between the two as the Indian batsman has been way ahead in terms of his numbers.
