Virat Kohli's enduring class has helped him score another consummate match-winning century, become the quickest batter to make 14,000 T20 runs and transport his champion Royal Challengers Bengaluru oufit to the top of the IPL.
Faced with a pretty challenging 193 to win in Raipur on Wednesday, Kohli, smarting after the rare experience of falling for ducks in his previous two knocks, demonstrated once again why he's the 'chasemaster', scoring his ninth IPL hundred and finishing on 105no as Benagluru beat Kolkata Knight Riders by six wickets.
He timed it perfectly, able to watch partner Jitesh Sharma clout a boundary off the first ball of the final over in Raipur to take RCB to their target on 4-194, and admit afterwards: "The fact I did not score runs in the previous games, it eats me up because I have been playing well."
