pronunciation (helpยทinfo)
(born 5 November 1988 in Delhi) is an Indian international cricketer.
He is a middle order batsman, who can also open the batting. He can also
bowl right arm medium pace.[1] Kohli was the captain of the victorious Indian team at the 2008 U/19 Cricket World Cup held in Malaysia. He represents Delhi in first-class cricket and is the captain[2] of Royal Challengers Bangalore franchise in the Indian Premier League. He also played for the West Delhi Cricket Academy.[3] He made his One Day International (ODI) debut in 2008 and was part of the Indian team which won the 2011 World Cup.
Despite being a regular in the ODI side, Kohli only played his first Test in 2011 against West Indies in Kingston. But on the disastrous 2011/12 India tour of Australia, in which India's senior batsmen struggled throughout, Kohli stood out, scoring his first Test hundred in Adelaide.[4] Kohli was the recipient of the ICC ODI Player of the Year award in 2012.[5]
