Pumped up after an unprecedented seventh IPL hundred, Virat Kohli took a dig at his critics who felt that he was all but over as a T20 batter, saying he is playing some of his best cricket in the shortest format.
Post the T20 World Cup semi-final exit last year, there have been indications that India’s T20 team would undergo a revamp and although the official line has been “workload management” of senior players, the likes of captain Rohit Sharma and Kohli himself haven’t played for India in the shortest format.
“I felt great. Lot of people think that my T20 cricket is declining, I don’t feel like that at all. I think I am playing my best T20 cricket again,” Kohli said during an interview with the BCCI’s ‘world feed’ after his 61-ball 101 not out against Gujarat Titans on May 21.
