How the Big names fared in the World T20

Virat Kohli – Excellent

All the words in the world could not explain what Virat Kohli did in the World T20. What impressed people following that was the fact that Kohli picked up the ball in the semifinal and picked up the wicket of Johnson Charles.

In spite of a rare failure in the first match, Kohli got his at together to make amends in the second. Playing on a horrific Eden Gardens turf made it all the more difficult to bat. However, Kohli was in a world of his own, smashing the ball to all parts of the ground. His running between the wickets was something of a novelty as Indian batsmen are usually not associated with such fitness. The final painting on the canvas came at the Wankhede Stadium where he slammed an unbeaten 89 in a losing cause.

Enough said? Well, he won the player of the tournament courtesy of smashing 273 runs at an average of 136. This is the second time in World T20s he has achieved all of that.
