    "editor1": "<p><strong>New Delhi, May 19 (CRICKETNMORE):<\/strong> Hailing Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper Virat Kohli as a &quot;legend&quot;, Mumbai Indians off-spinner Harbhajan Singh on Thursday said his side has plans to tackle the Delhi boy&#39;s onslaught in case the two sides face off in the Indian Premier League (IPL) play-offs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Kohli, who has been in prolific form with the willow in the shortest format in 2016, has amassed 865 runs in this edition of the IPL with four centuries so far.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>But the Punjab tweaker claimed that Mumbai have got the trick up their sleeve to dismiss the prolific right-hander.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Virat is a legend in himself. He has been in some different sort of form, it appears he is batting in a different league altogether,&quot; Harbhajan said on the sidelines of the launch of mobile sporting application &#39;Ballr&#39; here.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Asked if he has any plans to tackle Virat&#39;s onslaught, the 35-year-old said, &quot;We have planned really well against him. We have got him out in both the league games and also won both the games against RCB.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Heaping praises on the 27-year-old&#39;s consistency, Harbhajan said there is no doubt he will take Indian cricket to a whole new level in the next 10 years.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I have been working closely with him in the last 3-4 months. He is very hard working and always wants to be the best. He has already set a benchmark and is someone who will take Indian cricket to a different level,&quot; he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Responding to a query on the teams in race to the IPL play-offs, the senior bowler predicted Mumbai Indians, RCB, Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad as the front-runners.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Agency.<\/p>\r\n",
