5 times a player achieved a superhuman run of form
AB de Villiers has mastered all three formats of cricketForm is temporary, class is permanent – so goes the saying. However, the class of a player is defined by the form he goes through and the time-frame of its richness. Anyone can be a one-match or one-season wonder, but the true class of a player is judged by the consistency in form.Not every player can play at top form always. However, there are some players whose prolonged consistency with unreal from forces the fans into believing that the said player is beyond human – something superhuman.And here are 5 such players who went through or are going through a superhuman patch of form…
#5 Kumar Sangakkara
While Mitchell Starc is the most in-form bowler in the world right now, Kumar Sangakkara is the batting equivalent of it. Whenever he comes to bat, we can all be assured that he is going to stick to the pitch for a long time. And he almost always does that.
Sometimes, it is hard to understand whether he is actually a human made of mere flesh and bones and his current form adds more question marks to that.
Since 2014, he has scored 14 centuries in both Tests and ODIs and 2015 is yet to be over. The way he plays his shots, there’s no other left-hander is the world that can replace his technique. Even though he is on the wrong side of 30s, he is still going strong and can be counted to do well in every innings that he bats.
And this is why he is the Superhuman from Sri Lanka.
