The team management is reportedly unhappy with Virat Kohli after the former India skipper has failed to score big runs for quite some time. With an ultimatum almost being set for Kohli to perform or perish, Deepak Hooda has emerged as the front runner to take Kohli’s spot at No.3.
Kohli who will be a part of the team in the next two games will get those two opportunities to perform and guarantee his selection for the upcoming Asia Cup, scheduled to take place in Sri Lanka. With consistent poor performances, the team management has started to become upset with the former captain.

Adding fuel to the fire, came Deepak Hooda into the scene. A player who is desperate to prove his worth with the big boys on the grand stage has been impressive so far. Hooda had a stellar outing in IPL 2022 with the Lucknow Super Giants. After being skipper for the T20I series against South Africa, Hooda stole the show with his performances against Ireland.
Going up the order he opened for India in the first game and scored an unbeaten 47. The next day coming to bat at No.3 he went on to hit a magnificent hundred. The only fourth Indian batter to hit a century in T20I cricket. Today was no different. Hooda hammered a quick 33 off just 17 deliveries to give India a strong run boost.
Hooda’s knock consisted of 3 fours and 2 huge sixes. With an impressive strike rate of 194, and with consistent performances, and rising to the occasion multiple times, Deepak Hooda will surely tempt the Indian selectors to grant him a chance at the big stage.
