Revealed: All The Minute Details Of Virat Kohli’s Bat

Virat Kohli was already batting on 106 when Chris Woakes came to bowl the 34th over in the first of the three-match ODI series that took place earlier this year. Fresh from his sensational batting exploits, Kohli made the most of his form and scored a brilliant century to start his ODI captaincy career with an impressive win as India chased down 350.

And while century received praise from all over, it was his shot in the 34th over that had left everyone shell-shocked. Woakes bowled a slower ball, short of a length which would have made it nearly impossible for any other batsman to free his arms. However, the India skipper hit a sensational backfoot punch and cleared the cow corner with utmost ease, leaving the commentators nearly speechless.

In case you had missed that shot, here is a clip of it:

Arguably, the best batsman in the world right now, the 28-year has already scored 28 centuries and has been tipped to break several records. Well, given his unbelievable exploits with the bat, there is absolutely no denying the fact that every fan wants to know about the willow with which he shatters records every now and then.
