Virat Kohli is one of the biggest names in modern-day cricket. He is probably the best all-format batter in the current generation and has won countless matches for his team at all levels. That’s how he has been performing in the ongoing TATA IPL 2024 as well. The former RCB captain has set the tournament on fire and is at the top of the chart for the highest runs in the tournament.
Virat has scored 661 runs in 13 innings at an excellent average of 66.10 and a strike rate of 155.16. He has also scored one century and five half-centuries. Virat will be in action on Saturday at M. Chinnswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Royal Challengers Bengaluru will take on Chennai Super Kings in match no. 68, which is a must-win game for both teams to qualify for the playoffs. With the form Virat is in, he is very important for RCB.

Then, for a fast bowler, he picked the Indian speedster Jasprit Bumrah. He also picked Rashid Khan as a spin bowler and then picked Andre Russell to be the pace-bowling all-rounder of the team. He said,
“Along with me, the keeper batter would be, in my opinion, AB de Villiers. There’ll be Jasprit Bumrah. That makes it three. There will be Andre Russell. That makes it four. And there will be Rashid Khan. That makes it five.”
Virat shares a brotherly bond with De Villiers, and both have played a lot of cricket together. Then Bumrah is one of his close friends in the Indian team and has done well against RCB. Furthermore, Rashid adds variety to spin bowling and can also bat. Furthermore, Russell has been in good nick this season and is contributing with the bat and the ball for Kolkata Knight Riders, which is why they have been so successful.
