India’s run machine, Virat Kohli is making heads turn with his masterclass batting display at the 20-20 World Cup 2022. The former Indian skipper has been in sublime form and has already hit 3 half-centuries in four matches.

He currently leads the run-charts with 220 runs to his name in 4 matches at an average of 220 and a strike rate of 144.74. Virat Kohli began his campaign with an unbelievable match-winning knock of 82 runs in 53 balls against Pakistan, and he followed it up with another stellar knock of 62 runs in 44 deliveries against the Netherlands.

He couldn’t make a substantial contribution against South Africa but notched his third half-century of the tournament in the match against Bangladesh on Wednesday. He scored 64 runs in 44 balls, helping his team notch a formidable score of 184 runs at the end of the first innings.

During the knock, he also achieved a massive feat and created history in the 20-20 World Cup. Virat Kohli surpassed Sri Lankan legendary cricketer, Mahela Jayawardene to become the highest run-getter in the history of the 20-20 World Cup. Jayawardene scored 1060 runs in 31 innings, while Virat Kohli has now 1065 runs to his name in 23 innings in the tournament.

Virat Kohli’s wife and Bollywood superstar, Anushka Sharma took to her Instagram handle to express her delight on the same. She shared the news with her fans by posting it on her Instagram story.

Virat Kohli was enduring a lean patch for the last few years of his international cricket career. After taking a month-long break from the game, he marked his return in the Asia Cup and broke his century drought in international cricket. Kohli notched his maiden century against Afghanistan and also became India’s leading run-getter in the tournament.

Kohli then produced vital half-centuries during the home series against South Africa and Australia. The former Indian skipper has returned to his prime form and would be looking to continue in the same vein in the upcoming matches as well.
