Win Projections to be updated soon
The ongoing T20 World Cup final has everything set up. In the tournament’s championship match, Team India will take on South Africa on Saturday, June 29 at the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados, for a chance at glory and the title.
India will be feeling very confident about every element of their game as the match draws near, with the exception of one player: star batsman Virat Kohli. In the T20 World Cup, the seasoned batsman for India opened the innings but has failed to contribute with the bat.
When he saw how well Kohli was playing, former Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif stepped forward to support him to win the title. Kaif likened Kohli’s campaign to that of MS Dhoni, who performed brilliantly in the 2011 ODI World Cup despite being out of form the entire time.
“Virat Kohli must keep in mind that, although Dhoni didn’t have a fantastic World Cup in 2011, he turned things around in the championship game. IndiaToday cited Kaif as stating, “He is too talented a player to slog; he can play ball on merit and dominate any bowline attack.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s form was lacking at the 2011 ODI World Cup. He performed a flawless 91-run knock in the championship. His six-over, on-off Kulasekara is ingrained in the collective consciousness. I believe Virat Kohli has a fantastic chance to become a hero because of this,” he continued.
He ought to disregard his lacklustre performance: Kaif
In addition, Kaif said that Virat Kohli ought to put his bad performance in the competition behind him and draw motivation from his knock against South Africa during the ODI World Cup, which marked his 49th ODI century.
He has to get over the fact that his form is bad. When India last faced South Africa at Eden Gardens for the ODI World Cup, he had hit a century. He wasn’t slaving away that day; rather, he was playing the ball properly and making the right shots when it came to cricket, Kaif added. He was outstanding that day.
