The batter spearheaded India's chase of 189 runs, scoring an unbeaten 75-run knock.

Virat Kohli Picks Fastest Runner Between Wickets That He Has Played With. It's Not MS Dhoni

One of the fittest cricketers the game has seen, Virat Kohli is a livewire on the field. Even when it comes to running between the wickets, Kohli converts ones into twos with relative ease. The superstar batter has also shared the pitch with some of the fittest cricketers of all time, one of which is MS Dhoni. When it comes to running between the wickets, there's arguably a better runner than the Ranchi-born wicket-keeper batter. However, Dhoni isn't the 'fastest-runner' Virat Kohli has run with so far in his cricketing career.
