It has been a tour to remember for India skipper Virat Kohli. After impressing with the bat in the previous outings, Kohli was at his furious best as he fired a knock of 82 to help his side achieve a convincing seven-wicket win against Sri Lanka in the lone T20 at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Wednesday. With this, he became the second batsman, after Brendon McCullum, to register 1000 runs in T20I chases.
