Virat is fourth in the Orange Cap list of this season after Faf du Plessis, Shubman Gill, and Yashasvi Jaiswal. Earlier in September 2022, while scoring his century in the Asia Cup, Virat made a comeback. Then came his century in the ODI series against Sri Lanka, followed by a ton against Australia in the Test series. 

"Quite special considering the magnitude of the game. Thought SRH got a very good score. Ball was gripping as well. Faf's been on a different level. I've had a quiet couple of games. The way I was hitting in the nets wasn't transitioning into the middle, Virat said after winning the player of the match award.

"Crowd here was amazing today as well. Told Faf as well. Just felt like it was a home game for us. They were cheering for us, taking my name as well. I feel you can't create this. I haven't forced anyone to support me. It's an amazing position to be in that you can provide happiness to so many people," he added.
