It was Saturday morning. The long awaited weekend in
winters. Still I woke up at 5. It was the 5th day of First Test between
India and Australia and the match was hung evenly. India required 364 to win in
a day on Adelaide pitch which was turning perpendicular from roughs.
2 wickets lost early and in came Captain Virat Kohli who
made a splendid century and nearly took India home. Too close yet too far. Once
he departed the team collapsed like cards (even cards take more time). India
lost by 48 runs.
It was an amazing batting display by Kohli. It was like two different
games being played-one when Virat was batting and other when anyone else was
batting. It was sheer awesomeness. Today every one applauded Virat’s effort but
what will happen in 10 years from now.
People will say Virat was a player who made piles of runs
and broke all records but he was not a match winner. How can I say it with so
much of confidence that people will say this?? The reason is simple this is
what I saw people saying about Sachin Tendulkar. (Time to realise why Sachin was a great player even though winning rate of team was low at that time.)
The fact is Sachin Tendulkar was and Virat Kohli is a
champion.
