Virat Kohli is an Indian cricketer who represents the Indian cricket team in One Day International (ODI), Test, and T20 formats. Known for his impeccable right-handed batting skills, Kohli is regarded as one of the world’s finest batsmen. He captained the victorious Indian team in the 2008 Under-19 Cricket World Cup. In domestic cricket, Kohli represents Delhi in the first-class format, while he captains the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League.

Born / Wiki:

Virat Kohli was born on November 5, 1988, in Delhi, India. His parents are Saroj Kohli and Premji. He has an elder brother named Vikas and an elder sister named Bhavna. Kohli received his education from Vishal Bharti School. His father, Premji, was a lawyer who passed away in December 2006.

Career:

Since childhood, Virat Kohli showed a natural talent for playing cricket, which was noticed by people in his neighborhood. Based on their suggestion, his father enrolled him in the West Delhi Cricket Academy so that he could receive professional training and further develop his cricketing skills. Kohli gained prominence when he was playing for Delhi against Karnataka in a Ranji Trophy match on the day of his father’s death. Kohli captained the victorious Indian team in the cricket World Cup held in Malaysia. Batting at number four, he scored runs in six matches, including a century against the West Indies. He was praised for making several tactical changes during the tournament. He approached every match with seriousness. Kohli played a crucial role in India’s victory in the Emerging Players Tournament in Australia. In the final against South Africa, Kohli scored a century, leading India to victory.

In 2008, after playing in the Emerging Players Tournament in Australia, Kohli was selected for India’s ODI team for the tour of Sri Lanka. With injuries to both Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag, Kohli made his debut in the one-day internationals against Sri Lanka in the Idea Cup in 2008. In his first match, he scored 12 runs. He scored his first half-century in the fourth match, contributing 54 runs and helping India win the series. It was India’s first ODI series win in Sri Lanka. After injuries to Yuvraj Singh, Kohli played in the 2009 ICC Champions Trophy and was selected as a reserve ODI batsman since mid-2009. When Yuvraj Singh regained fitness for the home series against Australia, Kohli was able to play only a few matches in the series due to Yuvraj’s absence. During Yuvraj’s injury absence, Sri Lanka toured India in December 2009, and Kohli got the opportunity to play 4 ODIs. He scored his maiden ODI century and shared a 224-run partnership for the third wicket with Gautam Gambhir, helping India win the series 3-1. Senior batsman Sachin Tendulkar rested for the triangular series in Bangladesh in January 2010. Consequently, Kohli got a chance to play in each of the five matches. In June 2010, Kohli was appointed the vice-captain of the Indian team for the triangular series in Zimbabwe and the T20 series against Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka after all the first-choice players opted out of the tournament. In the same series, he became the fastest Indian to score 1000 runs in ODIs. He scored 995 runs in 25 matches at an average of 47.38, including three centuries, becoming the highest run-scorer for India in 2010.

In March 2008, Virat Kohli was bought by the Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore for $30,000 under a youth contract. Currently, he holds the number one position for scoring the most runs in the IPL. Kohli has scored 6283 runs in 207 matches played so far, including 5 centuries and 42 half-centuries.

His debut IPL season in 2008 was not very impressive, scoring only 165 runs in 12 matches with an average of 15.5 and a strike rate of 105.09. He performed slightly better in the second season, scoring 246 runs with an average of 22.36. However, it was in the 2010 season when Kohli showed significant improvement, becoming the third-highest run-scorer for his team with an average of 30.7 and a strike rate of 144.81.

Before the 2011 season, Kohli was the only retained player for the Royal Challengers Bangalore. He was appointed vice-captain that year and led the team in some matches when regular captain Daniel Vettori was injured. The team’s coach, Ray Jennings, predicted that Kohli would not only be the future captain of the franchise but also of the Indian team. Kohli emerged as the second-highest run-scorer in the season with 634 runs at an average of 45.28 and a strike rate of over 138, including six half-centuries and a top score of 99.

After Vettori’s retirement, Kohli was appointed captain for the 2013 season. Although the Royal Challengers finished fifth in the league that year, Kohli excelled with the bat. He scored a total of 634 runs at an average of 45.28, with a strike rate of over 138, including six half-centuries and a top score of 99.
