Virat Kohli receives 'International Player of the Year' award from Barmy Army

Kohli showcased a magnificent performance with the bat while batting in the middle order

Indian skipper Virat Kohli received a special award right ahead of the practice match against the Essex County Cricket Club on Wednesday.

The Barmy Army, the English cricket’s semi-organised fan group, presented the Indian captain, the International Player of the Year award for both 2017 and 2018. The trophies were handed over to Kohli right ahead of the game.

The moment was captured on camera which was later shared by BCCI on its official social media handle.

Here's the post:

Later, in the game, Kohli showcased a magnificent performance with the bat. He came at the crease after a massive failure of the Indian top batting order. He scored a half-century and ended up scoring 68 runs off 93 balls.

The Indian captain played a key role in rebuilding the Indian innings after losing the key players with the likes of Shikhar Dhawan, Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane early.
