While the disappointed captains of eliminated teams must accept the reality of recriminations and a social media backlash,Virat has managed to guide his team through to the final and now, once again, stands centre stage for the showpiece occasion.

At 28, he is at the peak of his powers, surely the outstanding cricketer in the world today.

 

AB de Villiers and Virat Kohli have scored more than 7,000 runs while playing together for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL
 

I have been privileged to play alongside him in the last six Indian Premier League tournaments and, as his team-mate at Royal Challengers Bangalore, have seen at first hand not only his extraordinary skill as a batsman but also the energy and intensity that he brings to the game.

He is a consummate surgeon at the crease, intensely focussed, working hard, playing the ball into gaps in the field and staying calm under pressure. He is always judging the right time to consolidate and the right time to seize a game by the scruff of the neck.
