Cricket Viral Video: Virat Kohli is one of the best batsmen in the world right now. And the Border-Gavaskar trophy 2014 could have been his declaration of that. Not only he ruined Australian bowlers with bats, but he also led the Indian test team for the first time ever.
One of the scenes that will forever be etched in every Indian memory is Virat Kohli completely shutting down Mitchell Johnson. Johnson was in fine form coming into the series. He has just decimated England in Ashes 2013-14.
