Virat Kohli is the king of the game: Washington Sundar

Kohli has 70 international tons to his name. He is also believed to be the player who can surpass Sachin Tendulkar's 100 centuries. Seeing his unbelievable records, there is no doubt that bowlers often find it difficult to dismiss Virat Kohli, particularly at the nets. During ESPNCricinfo '25 Questions' chat show, Kohli's RCB teammate Sundar was questioned how many times has he been able to remove the batsman at the nets. 

In response, Sundar stated that he has bowled to Virat many a time during the net sessions. The 21-year-old heaped praises on his captain, saying that Virat is the King of cricket and he hasn't succeeded in picking up his wicket often. Sundar further added that he is not able to get the batsman out in every net session, but he would be glorified if he manages to scalp the wicket of Kohli. 

Meanwhile, the Kohli-led Indian team will play against NZ in the World Test Championship final starting from June 18th. The Men in Blue will then play the five-match Test series against England after the WTC Final. Virat Kohli-led team India will play against NZ in a bid to avenge their World Cup semi-final loss.
