Indian Captain Virat Kohli putting on his best batting display in the India vs England 1st ODI match held in Pune on Sunday, January 15. The effects of that match are being still felt, with celebrities in awe of the swashbuckling cricketer. The young Virat Kohli himself said that this win of India over England will take time to sink in! He smashed a super six to earn his 27th century in one-day internationals, equalling batting legend Sachin Tendulkar. Virat Kohli’s match-winning innings in the India vs England match had eight fours and five sixes.

Virat Kohli said after the match to the media about his innings, “This win is going to take a while to sink in.” He praised his partner Kedar Jadhav, saying, “What a terrific innings by Kedar. We have seen his potential in the series against New Zealand. He almost won us a game in Delhi. That’s the chat we had. To rectify the mistake and take the team over the line. And Hardik finishing in the end. Two cool heads with Ashwin in the middle. Conceding 350 after being 63 for 4, their bowlers on top, it took a special partnership to get this win. It’s not that we have not chased 350 but those were based on good start at the top which provided the momentum. Chasing down 350 with four quicks in their team, it was a special feeling.”

Here is a video of the Virat Kohli six from the India vs England match that went viral and has got reactions from legendary cricketers Sachin Tendulkar and Kapil Dev, India Today Consulting Editor Rajdeep Sardesai and Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor, to name a few. India vs England 2nd ODI Preview.

Praising Kedar Jadhav further, Virat Kohli said, “(The) kind of shots he can play on this wicket can demoralise the opposition. The way he batted was terrific, not at one stage was he unsure of what he wanted to do. Brilliant knock. Hats off to the shots he played. Even I was in awe. So very very special partnership, I would remember it for a long time.” What a captain, who heaps praises on his partner, having broken his own century record! Let’s see how India fares in the India vs England 2nd ODI 2017 on January 19.
