Kohli's coming of age
Bharat Sundaresan, writing in the Indian Express , says that with the batting form Virat Kohli has been in over the last 12 months, he must be in a good frame of mind
Another pleasing factor in Kohli’s emergence has been his ability to take charge and hold his nerves in every situation he is faced with. On three occasions [in the IPL] already he has walked out to bat in the very first over of Bangalore’s innings. And on two of those, Kohli has started off with boundaries. Rather than let the pressure of the situation bog him down, he has managed to shift it onto the bowler.
