Indian superstar, Virat Kohli proved why he is regarded as 'King Kohli', as he gave fans a glimpse of his beautiful cover drive in the on-going India versus Australia fourth Test match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Kohli's picture-perfect shot against Aussie skipper Pat Cummins won hearts.

In the 21st over, Cummins bowled a full length outside off delivery, a genuine half-volley from Cummins. Virat Kohli leaned into the drive and got past mid off to his left, thereby executing the most perfect cover drive ever. His footwork and balance helped the ball race away to the fence in a flash. He latched onto that delivery like a hungry lion and sent it for a cracking boundary.

Kohli's Straight From Textbook Cover Drive


Kohli-Jaiswal Hold Tight At MCG

Virat Kohli, who slammed a century in the Perth Test, missed in usual spark in the second and third Test. However, he looks in absolutely fine form in this match. He walked in to bat after a jaffa by Pat Cummins forced KL Rahul to walk back early. However, since then Kohli has remained calm and composed as he formed a brilliant partnership 70-run with Yashasvi Jasiwal.

The young and in-form Jaiswal slammed his second 50-plus score Down Under in 81 balls. This was his ninth fifty in Tests. At the time of writing, India are at 124/2.
