Virat Kohli’s sensational hundred helps RCB triumph over RPS: Twitter Reaction from Cricket Fraternity

There are good batsmen, great batsmen and then there is Virat Kohli. The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper seems to be getting better with every season. Two weeks back, Kohli had no T20 hundreds to his name and now he has two. He has been carrying RCB on his shoulders and once again, he came to their rescue with a blinder.MORE: IPL 2016, Match 35, Pick of the tweets: Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Rising Pune Supergiants at Bangalore

Chasing 192 was never going to be easy but Kohli has a reputation of being the best batsman under pressure cooker situations. He backed himself, smashed his second T20 100 and in the process helped RCB successfully complete the chase.

He got good support from opener KL Rahul and all-rounder Shane Watson. Kohli remained unbeaten on 108 from 58 balls, an innings that contained eight fours and seven sixes. Tweets poured from around the world, congratulating Kohli and we bring you some of the tweets from cricket fraternity.

Can a ‘special performer’ orange cap be created just for Virat Kohli. Then we won’t need to repeat our words of praise for him @IPL @BCCI

Said it right @gbsaltlake I have been saying for a while. Msd has been great. But in the past. Sport is all about present. That’s @imVkohli

The Chase Master…but then he’s equally good in the first innings. Happy dilemma. #Respect #Kohli #RCBvRPS

Messi and Djokovic: watch out, @imVkohli is chasing you down

— Ed Smith (@edsmithwriter) May 7, 2016

There is no debate. Virat is clearly the best batsman in the business and by some distance. Under pressure in a run chase this is unreal.
