Speaking about Kohli’s performance in the last game against the Dutch, he took one wicket and also scored 51 runs in just 56 balls. The right-hand batter has been the top scorer for India in the World Cup, scoring 594 runs in nine games, which includes two centuries. His scintillating form has seen India win nine games in the WC, beating the previous 8 wins registered by India in 2015 WC.

Last time, Kohli scored only 1 run against New Zealand in the semi-final of the 2019 WC. But this time, Kohli will play as a batter and not as a captain. This gives him a chance to express himself more freely, which he is doing.
