The Battle of Kings: Elephants, Horses, and Cannons vs Virat Kohli:-
Elephants, horses, cannons, swords, you have the whole army of Mumbai, but the king who came on the field, that king is too much for Mumbai, this was the story between Mumbai Indians and RCB because when RCB scored 221, people could not believe it, but what Virat scored will trouble Mumbai a lot because Virat’s story was going on, this was the fight of king versus king and what we is elephants, horses, cannons, swords, you have the whole army, these were elephants, horses, cannons, swords because the one who has Jasprit Bumrah, Trent Boult, Deepak Chehar, bowler like Sutner, Hardik Pandya, that is an amazing bowling unit, they used six-eight bowlers, Mumbai used elephants, horses, cannons, swords, everything, but Virat Kohli sahab was too much for them all, he was too much for them because he scored 67 runs, created history, second fastest player to score 13,000 runs in T20 cricket, it was amazing man, the way Trent Boult bowled Phil Salt, after that it seemed that RCB’s situation will get tight, but Virat Kohli’s The statement was this king is superior to all.
Virat Kohli’s Record-Breaking Feat: A Knock for the Ages:-
It was a battle of king versus king. Jasprit Bumrah was making a comeback and on his return he hit a six on the second ball. However Bumrah sahab was not beaten much. Bumrah gave away only 29 runs in four overs and also took a couple of wickets, but the other bowlers kept getting beaten and did n’t even get a wicket.
Mumbai’s Bowling Firepower: Elephants, Horses, Cannons, and Swords:-
In fact Bumrah was given the wicket of Jitesh Sharma, then it was reversed, but all the other bowlers were thrashed by Virat Kohli. The rest were beaten for 165 runs and Virat Kohli became the first Indian player to score 13,000 runs in T20 cricket, meaning the gap between Virat and Rohit is visible here. Rohit Sharma has 11,851 runs in 438 innings and Virat Kohli has 13,000 runs in 386 innings.
Trent Boult’s Early Success and Bumrah’s Steady Return:-
No one else has scored even 10,000 runs for India till date. Many said that Virat sahab has retired, he could have played but the record of 13,000 runs is a big one. Why is it a big record? Because in T20, Virat Kohli has not got the status that he gets in ODI cricket. In T20, there is often criticism that Virat plays slow and does not play that fast.
But what Virat does, you will understand from this stat. Virat Kohli has scored 13,000 runs in 381 innings, which is more than players like Alex Hales, Shoaib Malik, Kieron Pollard. There is only one Chris Gayle who has scored only five runs in fewer innings than Virat Kohli. And you know what is the status of Chris Gayle in world cricket.
You know what is his status in T20 cricket. Now if he has been used only five innings less than Chris Gayle, then it means that Virat has a very big name. Virat is the second player after Shoaib Malik who has scored 13,000 plus runs in T20 cricket. Otherwise, no one from Asia has scored 13,000 runs.
Kohli’s Onslaught: Mumbai Bowlers Struggle:-
It was only Shoaib Malik. Virat needed 17 runs and when Phil Salt got out, Kohli along with Padikkal scored the same. He did this feat, along with Padikkal, he scored good runs in this match, he thrashed Deepak Chahar, Trent Boult proved to be very expensive, Trent Boult actually got thrashed very badly, he went for 57 runs in four overs, only Bumrah was economical, the rest were thrashed, Hardik Pandya was thrashed and while thrashing all of them, Kohli sahab made this history, so well done Kohli sahab, 67 runs in 42 balls, eight fours, two sixes, amazing innings at Wankhede, and the slogans of Kohli, Kohli at Wankhede were refreshing the memories of the old days because it is Rohit Sharma’s stronghold and there are many players in that stronghold, there are elephants, horses, cannons, soles, everything in that stronghold because Surya Kumar Yadav plays from there, Hardik Pandya plays from there, Jas Bumrah plays from there, Rohit Sharma plays from there, all of them are big players in international cricket, who play for their respective Indian teams, but even after that, the loudest voice comes is for Virat Kohli sahab from Mumbai and this how big a player he is and how he has performed in this match and how much the new kids can learn. However, Virat and Bumrah both had fun and refreshed the old memories of 2013. Many people were expecting that Virat will get Bumrah out but he could not get him out and went wicketless in front of Virat.
Virat Kohli vs Rohit Sharma: A Tale of Two Kings:-
On the other hand, Rohit Sharma got out, Yash Dayal bowled him out on nine balls. So Virat sahab played brilliantly on one side and Rohit sahab flopped. However, Rohit Sharma will have to upgrade his batting, otherwise Mumbai will keep getting stuck in many such matches and will keep playing. Virat sahab has done brilliantly for now.
Kohli’s Legacy: A Stat to Remember:-
This is the story of this match. You have to tell who will do brilliantly in the next match because there are two matches tomorrow. One match is of Kolkata with Lucknow. You have to tell whether Kolkata will beat Lucknow. The second match is of Chennai with Punjab.
The Kohli vs Bumrah Duel: Memories of 2013:-
It is easy to guess who will win in the Punjab match. Think Punjab can make a comeback. It has high chances. But Virat Kohli what a man, what a player, and think Virat can break the records of many players this season itself, like if he makes 537 and 555, then he can break the records of Kieron Pollard and Shab Malik, that means there is a difference of 600 runs and he can break those records in one IPL season, whereas these people play in all the leagues around the world, apart from this Virat Kohli sir and many other things, that means you will see the records in Wankhede, which is Rohit Sharma’s home, even there if you talk about half-centuries, Virat has eight half-centuries in just 22 innings, this in itself is a big thing, Sur has 13, Rohit has 18 in 50 innings, he has eight in 86 innings in 22 innings, so this in itself is,about most 50 IPL history, then there Virat Kohli is now only one behind Warner, Warner has 66.
Final Thoughts: Virat Kohli’s Unmatched Legacy in IPL:-
He has 65, this is the story, Shikhar has 53, Rohit has 45, rest of the de Villiers have all disappeared, so overall a great day for Virat Kohli, great day for RCB fans, those who wanted to see him, saw him and Virat also showed his show in a tremendous way at Wankhede, tremendous means Virat said about Virat, then we will say the same thing from where we started, elephants, horses, cannons, swords, army are yours, but Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, Rohit Sharma, Trend Boult, Deepak Chahar, the king overshadowed all of them in batting.
