  • They say all good things come in small packages. India captain Virat Kohli certainly falls in that category with the 5’9” Delhi batsman breaking every record in the book.

    Kohli packs quite a punch in his relatively small but muscular frame, outperforming players much bigger in size with his timing, fitness and running between the wickets. Though he doesn’t have the power of a Chris Gayle, David Warner or Chris Lynn, Kohli more than makes up for it with his ability to find gaps and convert good balls into boundaries.

    While his 175cm frame doesn’t give him a lot of leverage, his placement and timing allow Kohli to maintain a high strike rate and average in all formats. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that he is the only batsman to average more than 50 in all formats of the game.

    Kiwi captain and prolific scorer Kane Williamson is of similar stature – 173cms – and the two batsmen have shown that bigger is not always better.
