The year 2016 has been a fascinating year for Indian captain Virat Kohli. He entered the record books as he smashed 235 runs of 340 deliveries against England in the fourth test of the 5 match series at the Wankhede in Mumbai. Be it any format, Virat Kohli has been among runs and has looked unstoppable.
Virat Kohli has to his name 3 double hundreds this year and now has the highest individual score by an Indian captain. The right-hand genius also crossed 900 plus runs in the IPL in the 2016 season adding four centuries to his name. Indian skipper has also scored the highest number of runs in the Asia Cup T20 and T20 World Cup organised in India clinching the man of the series award. Praise has flowed from all over the world as many former cricketers have congratulated the RCB batsman for his wonderful form with the bat.
Virat Kohli, over the years, had proved to be a bowler’s nightmare but there is one such bowler who Virat Kohli is scared to face. Kohli has revealed the name of the bowler he respects the most and would find hard to play. And the bowler is none other than the ‘King of Swing’ Wasim Akram.
“If there is any bowler who I am scared to face or would have feared if I would have played against him is Wasim Akram.”
There is no doubt that the Pakistani legend was one of the most feared bowlers of his era who has also congratulated Virat for his excellent show with the bat.
