IPL 2026: Kohli's Six-hitting Ability Has Increased In The Last Two Seasons, Believes Steyn
Former South Africa: Former South Africa fast bowler Dale Steyn has hailed Virat Kohli’s evolution as a batter in the Indian Premier League (IPL), pointing out that his enhanced six-hitting ability over the last two seasons of the competition has been a standout factor.
At the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Kohli left everyone spellbound by hitting an unbeaten 69 and helping RCB begin their title defence by chasing down a target of 202 in 15.4 overs. Kohli entered IPL 2026 after a ten-month break from T20s and making 93, 23 and 124 in three ODIs against New Zealand in January.
“A lot of players, when they reach the level Virat Kohli is at right now, look to change their game by a couple of percentages. That is what Virat has been doing every IPL season. He looks for ways to improve himself and the new improvement which he has made in his game is his six-hitting ability, which has increased over the last two seasons.
