Kohli

JFC he is shit

Come back Sehwag, all is forgiven

His giant ego probably would've taken a battering after that bowling performance though. The benchod.

Also those 2 overs were heard around the world.

More excitement, drama, skill, quality etc in thos 2 overs than any Test ever

Think Tests have offcially died

Owais Shah is going mental in the IPL. Worth a go for England's ODI/T20 squads imho. At least for the games in Asia, anyway. I am more tolerant of his annoying batting face nowadays. Good lad.

Kohli flopped again i see

Stick to Tests

Leave the real cricket to the talented players

It's a bit annoying that there's not much proper cricket on right now. Windies-Aussies is a bit of a joke because Windies' 3 best players are playing joke cric in the IPL (Narine, Gayle and Pollard).

Others have commented that my man-crush on Kohli is getting disturbing tbh. But I'll be very smug when he establishes himself as the greatest batsman of his generation. The talent is so obvious I can't believe others haven't caught on. The other day, in Tendulkar's '100th 100 party', Sachin said Kohli was capable of breaking his 100 100s record. Just needs to keep his mind fixed on cricket and he'll get there. If he lets the money and fame get to him, then he won't. The talent is there, but only the mentality can be questioned. So far, he's passing with flying colours.
