Strong Record Against Bangladesh
Though Virat Kohli has been underwhelming in the T20 World Cup, his record against Bangladesh is stellar. He has scored 145 runs in 3 T20 matches against them, with two half-centuries and a highest score of 64 not out, averaging 145. Fans are hopeful he will deliver a strong performance against Bangladesh.
Kohli’s Ongoing Opening Struggles
During the group stage, Kohli didn’t reach double figures even once. Against Afghanistan, he scored 24 runs from 24 balls, which has led to questions about his form. Nonetheless, he was outstanding in the IPL, scoring over 700 runs for RCB.
Potential Changes for Team India
Shivam Dube has been struggling in the middle order and hasn’t made much impact. Consequently, Sanju Samson, who is in excellent form and had a great IPL season, might be given a chance in today’s match.
