Ahead of the World Test Championship (WTC) final, Virat Kohli affirms his commitment to maintaining his technique and not indulging in “fancy shots” for the Indian Premier League (IPL). The Indian cricket stalwart showcased his prowess by scoring a brilliant century off just 63 deliveries during the Royal Challengers Bangalore’s emphatic eight-wicket victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) on Thursday.

“I’ve never been a guy who tries so many fancy shots, because we have to play 12 months of the year. For me, it’s not (about) playing fancy shots and throwing my wicket away. We’ve got test cricket after the IPL, so I’ve got to stay true to my technique and find ways to win games for my team, something that I take a lot of pride in,” Virat Kohli said after winning the Player of the Match award.

India and Australia are gearing up for an epic showdown in the final of the World Test Championship (WTC), scheduled to be held at the iconic Oval in London from June 7-11.
