You won't find a more stylish batsman in the middle than Virat Kohli when he is in his zone, especially during chases. The former India skipper seemed to be on his own on Sunday (October 22) during their World Cup 2023 clash against New Zealand in Dharamsala.

The shot Kohli played against Rachin Ravindra reminded everyone of his good old days, among the many delightful shots he hit against the star-studded Kiwi attack.

It was a loose delivery by Ravindra, who came to bowl the 29th over of India’s innings. The ball pitched at Kohli’s arch outside the off stump, and the veteran played one of his trademark shots—an inside-out lofted drive—over extra cover.

The timing of the shot was so perfect that the ball sailed over the boundary ropes for a handsome six.

Chasing 274, the Men in Blue, as of writing, are in a commanding position to get the job done. With Kohli batting on 44* off 57 deliveries and KL Rahul going strong on 26* off 31 balls, they have reached 177 for three after 31.4 overs.
