The evolution of those numbers – Ian Bishop in awe of Virat Kohli’s mind-bending stats
Virat Kohli has been in dream form in the ongoing IPL, extending his dominance with another match-winning innings. Kohli smashed 81 off just 44 balls, leaving the Gujarat Titans frazzled. Kohli’s capability to chase without any fuss sets him apart from others.
Talking on ESPNCricinfo’s TimeOut show, Ian Bishop, former West Indies cricketer and renowned broadcaster opened up on how Kohli continues to dominate at an age that makes things extremely difficult for most players. Bishop opened up about how Kohli’s evolution of numbers has completely changed the dynamic for the star striker.
Bishop said, “I love Kohli the batter. But the evolution of those numbers for a guy who is in his mid-30s [37] now, [that he] continues to evolve in a game that has gone high-tempo and high-gear is to me extraordinary, that he's been able to do this and find a role for himself in such a position."
