The Virat Kohli rut: What's gone wrong?
"During the last match (against Mumbai Indians) I told Daniel Vettori (then RCB coach) that I felt like I could hit every ball of the first over from Tim Southee for a six," exclaimed a jubilant Virat Kohli after Royal challengers Bangalore's annual green-jersey fixture against Gujarat Lion in which he hit his third century of IPL 2016. Kohli had already embarked on a journey in which he scaled peaks that were previously unthought of.
