He currently sits at the top of the orange cap standings with 708 runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"I like to keep things very simple. I am not a big stats guy. I have never really watched the analysis of any bowler, the wrist positions, where the ball is, because the guy might do something different on a particular day.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"I have to adapt. I have to trust my own eyes, my own instinct and react to the ball and find the best solutions in any situation possible. And when you are thinking on your feet, you will find solutions to the situations that arise,\" said Kohli in the video posted by Star Sports.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Kolhi is also 266 runs short to break his record of 973 runs in a season (2016). Although it is unlikely that he touches the record, he could potentially play up to three games more this season, if the team is to reach the final which could propel him to the elusive record.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"I don\u2019t think a computer simulation can tell you the situation you are going to be in. It can\u2019t prepare you for that. So, finding solutions is a very in the moment process. As I said, I have based my cricket on the basics of the game. I keep my game very similar in all three formats of the game and for me it\u2019s just playing the game at a very different tempo,\" added the former Indian skipper.<\/p>\r\n\r\n",
