The Men in Blue head to the nation’s capital Delhi for their next match in their bid to qualify for the World Cup after an exciting victory against Australia on Sunday. There, they will face Afghanistan.
Virat Kohli and KL Rahul were lauded by Irfan Pathan for their poise and composure throughout the run chase in his interview with Star Sports following India’s six-wicket triumph.
Irfan Pathan, a StarCast expert, commented on Kohli’s ability to control and successfully complete run chases in an exclusive interview with Star Sports. He said, “It has happened many times that Virat Kohli has played such knocks, where wickets have fallen, and wickets are continuously happening to fall at the other end. He is recognized as one of the game’s all-time modern masters because he was still able to apply pressure to the bowlers.
I would consider this to be one of his best knocks because he played to the conditions of the field, the expectations that had been placed on him for the World Cup opener, and the manner that pressure had also been built up around the game.
He has been looking really calm, Irfan Pathan observed as he examined KL Rahul successful strategy following his comeback. In contrast to how he used to handle pressure, he now appears to be soaking it up, and the outcome reflects this. He doesn’t even appear to be getting out while he is batting as a result of this. Even if he isn’t getting beat as much, beatings still occur.
He’s hitting the big strokes, finding the singles, and using the sweep shots, and he also appears to be taking his time drawing the ball, which suggests that he has control. In addition to putting a lot of effort into his technique, he also appears to be a much improved version of himself.
