However, after the reverse sweep, Kohli started to play defensive shots. As far as his form is concerned, the batting maestro has been in good nick of late. After having a superb Asia Cup 2022, he was fairly decent during the three-match T20I series against Australia and South Africa. If India are to do good in the ICC T20 WC, then Kohli will have to be at his best. Besides, Kohli was the lone warrior during the India-Pakistan clash of the previous edition. He scored a valiant half-century back then.
Considering the fact that he has a good record against Pakistan, Kohli would fancy his chances of doing well in the much-awaited clash. In the meanwhile, the pressure is on Yuzvendra Chahal to do good as well. The leggie is expected to pick wickets in the middle overs.
Besides, after not being selected for the 2021 edition of the T20 WC, he would have a point to prove. As for the team combination, India’s captain Rohit Sharma spoke drew light on the same. Further on, he stated that he is open to changing the XI in every game.

“I certainly want to keep my mind open on playing eleven. We don’t want to get stuck with one particular way of making your playing eleven. We want to be open about it. If we have to change one or two players in every game, we’ve got to be ready for it. That’s how we have prepared all our guys, as well,” said Rohit Sharma.
“The message was given long before we came here that if we need to change one or two players for the match-ups for what sort of conditions we are playing in, guys will be ready for it. So, it’s not a last-minute thing where we are changing the players. This is the talk that has happened in the team long way back, and guys are ready for it,” said Rohit Sharma during a media interaction.
