Watch: Virat smashes huge Dhoni-style ‘helicopter’ 6 vs Sri Lanka

The video shows India’s star batter Virat Kohli smashing a huge six into the stands, in the 3rd ODI vs Sri Lanka on Sunday, from a low difficult angle in what is now called a “helicopter shot” that was the trademark of former India captain MS Dhoni. Even the commentator remarked that there was a bit of MS Dhoni in the shot.

Kohli went on to score an unbeaten 166 runs embellished with 13 fours and 8 sixes. He has now scored three centuries in the last 4 ODI matches to mark his return to form after the bad patch he was going through recently.
