New Delhi: Virat Kohli’s greatness in the Indian Premier League is not only defined by the run-it is stamped with a sheer stability and effect, especially against the top level opponents. Among all the franchisees, any team has seen Kohli’s anger more than Chennai Super Kings, one of the most successful aspects in IPL history. With 1,146 runs against CSK, Kohli now holds the record for the most runs by a batsman against a single rival in IPL history.
He crossed 1,134 of David Warner against PBK and even improved his own tall against DC (1,130) and PBK (1,104).
Kohli has 10 fifty-Plus scores against CSK, the highest by any player against the five-time champion.
The next best – Shikhar Dhawan, David Warner and Rohit Sharma – are nine each. But what Kohli has done differently is how he has stepped into large matches, often leads RCB’s hopes against one of the most stronger sides in the league.
