Virat is a player that can put pressure on the opposition with his aggressive style of play. He can generate runs with traditional shots. He doesn't go overboard with experimental shots; instead, he sticks to his known strengths. Virat excels at driving long balls past the stands and over deep midwicket.

Shot Selection!

Virat excels at being in command of the innings. He keeps his cool throughout the game and either lets the team score a huge total or seals the team's triumph by chasing. He will modify his play based on the game's momentum. He offers everything he has on the field.

Responsible Player

Kohli enjoys chasing  big totals regardless of the format.  As per his records, his batting numbers while playing for the chasing team are unbelievable. Without jeopardizing his wicket, he steadily advances the game by hitting the requisite runs and boundaries at regular intervals.

A Maestro in Chasing

In contrast to the powerful hitters, Kohli prefers to run between the wickets rather than take big strokes and risk his wicket. His outstanding effort has aided India in achieving multiple victories by chasing down massive targets over the years.

Team India requires a bonus point to advance to the finals. Sri Lanka has set a mammoth aim of 321 runs in 40 overs. Kohli guided the team to victory in 36.4 overs with an incredible inning of 133 runs in 86 balls. Kohli was the talk of the cricket world at the time.

2012 Commonwealth Series

Virat places team victory ahead of individual performance in sports. He does not play for personal records when he approaches 50 or 100 runs. Kohli's trademark is rotating the strike to match the demands of the squad.

Selfless

Virat has developed into a run machine by improving from game to game and mastering the skills that have made him a great player, like consistency and persistence.

The Legend

Virat Kohli is the only batter in modern cricket who can come close to matching Sachin's records. He never thinks himself to be the best, but he constantly strives for the team while remaining humble. Because of these characteristics, he is considered one of the greats of the gentleman's game.
