‘Get better by 1 percent’: Virat Kohli’s old Tweet resurfaces as he takes a stunner to dismiss Rishabh Pant
Virat Kohli’s bat is not doing the talking on his behalf for quite some time now. He has been getting starts but has failed to deliver something big. However, this has not taken away anything from the excellent fielder that he is. He has been a fitness freak and that has been evident in his fielding efforts. The 27th match of the Indian T20 League 2022 between Bangalore and Delhi remained witness to another brilliant fielding effort by ‘the King’.
Delhi was chasing a target of 190 runs set by Bangalore and looked well on course. At the beginning of the 17th over of the Delhi innings, they required 56 runs to win from 24 deliveries with 5 wickets still in hand. The skipper of the team Rishabh Pant was still present in the middle and it appeared that Delhi will achieve the target. But in the third ball of the over Virat pulled out a stunner to dismiss the southpaw.
Pant tried to smack a full toss by Mohammed Siraj over the covers. But Kohli timed his jump to perfection and caught the ball at the edge of the circle. This turned out to be a match-turning incident as after this Bangalore got better off the Delhi batting order and won the match by 16 runs.

Soon, after Kohli completed the brilliant catch, one of his recent Tweets went viral. The Tweet was a video of Kohli working out in the gym. He revealed in the caption about the strength and conditioning coach of Bangalore, Shankar Basu motivating him.
The post was captioned – “The difference between a good attempt and a good catch is the work you do in the gym- shankar basu. Thanks for imbibing the “get better by 1 percent” attitude in me bassa sirrrr.”
