Virat Kohli has been in the midst of some serious form in this World Cup 2023, recently racking up scores of 103* vs Bangladesh and 95 vs New Zealand to seal his authority in the tournament. 

Experts from all across the globe have been heaping praises on the King and the latest one to join this hallowed list was his own skipper back at RCB, Faf du Plessis.

The South African was in utter awe of the former Indian captain and expressed his admiration about Virat’s temperament in those marathon chases. In an interview with Star Sports, du Plessis opened up on the best chaser of the world at the moment and he was clear in his assessment, highlighting a clear winner of the debate.

Faf said, “Virat Kohli is the best chaser in cricket history. The standout qualities of Virat Kohli are his unwavering hunger and unmatched competitiveness to constantly strive for excellence in the game. I have never witnessed anyone with a stronger mindset than him. He is always on, always striving for greatness, and that is incredibly inspiring for everyone.”

Virat is currently the second highest run-scorer in the ongoing World Cup with 354 runs scored at an astonishing average of 118. He is behind South Africa’s Quinton de Kock, who leads the charts with 407 runs. Virat will be back in action as India takes on England on Sunday.
