Virat Kohli: India and Afghanistan will face each other in the Super 8. But before that, the form of Team India's star batsman Virat Kohli has been a matter of concern in the tournament. His bat has been silent so far. This can be gauged from the fact that he has scored only 5 runs in 3 matches so far.

This has left the team management confused about Kohli's form. Despite his poor form, a former South African legend is praising him highly. He believes that the 35-year-old Indian batsman King Kohli will score a lot of runs in the upcoming tournament. Let us tell you who the player is?

Veteran's statement on Virat Kohli's form

  • After scoring 741 runs in the last Indian Premier League tournament, Virat Kohli was expected to perform similarly in the T20 World Cup tournament as well.
  • But here he failed. Despite this, former South African cricketer Morne Morkel is hopeful that Virat will definitely shine in the Super 8.
  • Morkel says there is no need to worry about Kohli.

“Don't worry about Virat” - Morne Morkel

Morne Morkel said on Star Sports,

"Don't worry about Virat (Virat Kohli).

Class players know how to score at the right time. If I were a bowler, I would feel nervous bowling against him. He is a player who rotates the strike and hits fours even on good balls. I am excited to see how he performs. He will definitely play well in the Super 8."

Virat's average dropped below 50

  • Virat Kohli bats at number three in international cricket.
  • But he is opening in the T20 World Cup. Virat, who scored 1 against Ireland and 4 against arch-rival Pakistan, got out on 0 against America.
  • With this, two unwanted records have been added to his name.
    This is the first time in the T20 World Cup that Virat has been out at 0 and after this innings, his T20 batting average has come below 50.

Kohli was the highest run scorer in the 2022 tournament

  • It is worth noting that if we talk about the 2022 T20 World Cup, then Virat Kohli was the highest run scorer for India.
  • He scored a total of 296 runs in 6 matches. He scored a total of 4 half-centuries in the tournament. At the same time, his brilliant batting form was also seen in IPL 2024.
  • Kohli was the highest run scorer in this IPL at the beginning of the season.
    He also won the Orange Cap.
