When Virat Kohli's magic even left Premier League football superstars spellbound!

Virat Kohli's stunning batting display on Sunday in Mohali not just impressed the cricket world but also found appreciation in Premier League football circles.

The Delhi batter stroked a masterful 82-run knock to power India to the semi-final of the ICC World Twenty20.

Under immense pressure for most part of the run chase, Kohli held his nerve to bat right through the innings.

The 27-year-old's knock was so special, it even made Tottenham Hotspur and England star Harry Kane sit up and take note.

The forward took to social micro-blogging site Twitter to applaud the right-hander's effort in a tough situation.

Virat Kohli is some player!In the high pressure situations shows what type of player you are and he does it time and time again! #IndvsAus

Former Liverpool midfielder Dietmar Hamann on the other hand knew exactly what he had missed thanks to the scale of the buzz on social media networks.

Have I missed one of the all time classic knocks? #Kohli
