India have been cruising in the T20 World Cup so far. After an unbeaten run through the group stages of the tournament, India blew Afghanistan away in their first Super 8 game. They now face Bangladesh, and Rohit Sharma’s team would be looking at more than just winning the tie and sealing their place in the semi-finals.
Virat Kohli’s return to form awaited
Virat Kohli, who has opened the innings in the T20 World Cup, hasn’t been among runs so far. However, this is a great opportunity for him to shine, specially given the fact that he has a spectacular record against the neighbouring nation.
