Virat Kohli had a standout IPL in the 2016 edition, when he slammed four centuries and close to 1000 runs in the season.

Now, Kohli has said that one of those hundreds – a 50-ball 113 against Kings XI Punjab – was his most fun innings.

“It was against Kings XI in the IPL,” Kohli said in an Instagram live chat with Kevin Pietersen. “It was, I think, a 13-14-over game or a 15 over game, and I got a hundred in 12 overs. That was one of the days where I felt like, ‘Jeez, I’m just connecting everything’, and I just felt like I couldn’t get out. And I’ve never felt like that before. Just to be able to hit and not have that fear of getting out. It was amazing. So that has been my most fun innings.”

Kohli’s inspiring streak of performances took RCB all the way to the final of the 2016 IPL, before they met their match in Sunrisers Hyderabad, who lifted the IPL trophy for the first time.
