<p>Arshdeep Singh bowled exceptionally well and held his nerves in the final over to help India beat Bangladesh by 5 runs in a ran-affected thriller at the Adelaide Oval in Adelaide on Wednesday (November 02). It was a nail-biter between the two teams as the Indian bowlers staged an incredible comeback after a flying start from Bangladesh in their run-chase.</p>

<p>India rode on half-centuries from Virat Kohli and KL Rahul to post a strong total of 184 runs on the board after being asked to bat first. While many were expecting the Men in Blue to dominate with the ball after their superb effort with the bat, Litton Das decided to go after the Indian bowlers from the word go and turn the game in Bangladesh's favour.</p>

<p>The opening batter looked in sensational touch as he slammed a quickfire 60 off just 27 balls laced with seven fours and three sixes and got his team off to an amazing start. Courtesy of his hitting prowess, Bangladesh found themselves comfortably ahead of the DLS score when rain halted play during the seventh over.</p>

<p>Bangladesh were 66/0 after seven overs, 17 ahead of the DLS par score of 49. As the rain got heavier, India's chances appeared to be diminishing but the game eventually resumed after a short delay with the target getting revised to 151 off 16 overs.</p>

<p>India sensed an opportunity to make a comeback in the game and the bowlers didn't disappoint as Bangladesh kept losing wickets at regular intervals.&nbsp;Litton was run-out on 60 in the very first over post-resumption before Mohammed Shami struck to get rid of his opening partner Najmul Hossain Shanto on 21 after he started looking dangerous.</p>

<p>Arshdeep Singh and Hardik Pandya then combined to get India back into the game with two wickets apiece. With 20 needed off the final over, Arshdeep managed to hold his nerves against Taskin Ahmed and Nurul Hussain to seal a thrilling 5-run victory for India.</p>

T20 World Cup 2022: Kohli, Arshdeep help India beat Bangladesh by 5 runs in rain-affected thriller

<p>Virat Kohli added another feather to his illustrious cap in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022 on Wednesday (November 02) as he became the highest run-getter in the history of the tournament. Kohli continued his sensational run with the willow as he notched up his third fifty in four games during India's Super 12 clash against Bangladesh at the Adelaide Oval.</p>

<p>Kohli scored an unbeaten 64 off 44 deliveries to help India post a strong total of 184 runs on the board and go past Sri Lankan legend Mahela Jayawardene in the list of highest run-getters in T20 World Cup history. Kohli now has 1065 runs in 25 matches in T20 World Cups at a brilliant average of&nbsp;88.75 and a strike rate of over 132.</p>

<p>Kohli needed just 16 runs to surpass Jayawardene in India's clash against Bangladesh and the batting maestro once again looked in sublime control throughout his innings as he notched up his third fifty in the tournament. Kohli has now scored a staggering 13 half-centuries in the T20 World Cup and has arguably been the most prolific run-getter in the tournament over the years.</p>

<p>Lauding him for his incredible consistency, former Australia all-rounder Shane Watson called Kohli a 'freak' and said his numbers in the T20 World Cup are 'ridiculous'. Watson said he was unable to wrap his around Kohli's numbers despite T20s being a high-risk, high-reward format for batters.</p>

<p>"Over 1000 runs in T20 World Cups at an average of over 80, I am not able to get my head around this. T20 cricket is a high-risk game, high-risk batting and to think that he can do it at the biggest tournament, averaging so much and winning so many games for his countryâ€¦ he is a freak and those statistics are super freakish. It’s incredible that you can bat in such a high-risk format and score consistently. It’s ridiculous," Watson said during commentary on <em>Star Sports</em>.</p>

<p>Kohli has silenced all his doubters with his purple patch in the ongoing T20 World Cup. There were concerns surrounding his form with many even questioning his spot in the T20 squad in the build-up to the showpiece event in Australia. However, Kohli has managed to answer his critics in style with some remarkable performances so far.</p>

<p>With the help of his 44-ball 64, India posted 184 runs on the board and would be hoping to defend the total to bounce back to winning ways post their loss against South Africa in their last game.</p>

Virat Kohli is a freak, his consistency in T20 World Cups is ridiculous: Shane Watson

<p>India have locked horns with Bangladesh in a crucial Super 12 clash in the T20 World Cup 2022 edition on Wednesday (November 02), at the picturesque Adelaide Oval, Adelaide. Being asked to bat first, Rohit Sharma-led Men in Blue posted a competitive 184/6 riding on KL Rahul's 50 and Virat Kohli's unbeaten 44-ball 64.</p>

<p>After Rahul's fluent knock, the onus fell on Kohli who held one end and took the one-time winners to a score near the 200-run mark. However, a minor controversy broke during the 15th over of the Indian innings.&nbsp;In the final delivery of the 15th over, pacer Hasan Mahmud banged in a short ball it rose on to the right-hander. Kohli immediately gestured at the umpires for a no-ball. The on-field umpire Marais Erasmus gave it a no-ball but Bangladesh skipper Shakib Al Hasan wasn't impressed with Kohli's appeal.</p>

<p>Baffled with Kohli's appeal, Shakib and the former Indian captain nearly collided and had a brief chat before they hugged it out and proceedings resumed.&nbsp;The superstar duo had a good laugh and gave a pat on each other's back as the incident was done and dusted then and there.&nbsp;</p>

T20 WC: Shakib Al Hasan baffled as Virat Kohli asks for a no-ball from umpires, duo involved in brief chat

<p>Virat Kohli scripted history in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022 on Wednesday (November 02) as he broke Sri Lanka legend Mahela Jayawardene's long-standing record of most runs in the history of the tournament. Kohli achieved the elusive feat in India's Super 12 clash against Bangladesh at the Adelaide Oval.</p>

<p>Kohli headed into the clash needing just 16 runs to surpass Jayawardene in the list of highest run-getters in T20 World Cup history. He overtook him comfortably as the in-form batter got off to a flying start against Bangladesh to continue his purple patch in the tournament.</p>

<p>Jayawardene scored 1016 runs in 31 matches in the T20 World Cup at an average of 39.07 and a strike rate of 134.74. Kohli has managed to achieve the feat in just 25 matches and has batted at a stunning average of 83.42 while striking at 131.71 for the Indian team.</p>

<p>He has been in sensational form so far in the tournament and has already notched up three half-centuries in four matches. After smashing back-to-back fifties against Pakistan and Netherlands, Kohli slammed another half-century against Bangladesh in Adelaide on Wednesday.</p>

<p>He is currently India's highest run-getter in the T20 World Cup 2022 having already breached the 200-run mark with incredible consistency. Earlier in the tournament, Kohli had become the first Indian to go past the 1000-run mark in T20 World Cup history.</p>

<p>There were doubts over Kohli's form in the build-up to the T20 World Cup but Kohli has managed to silence his critics with brilliant performances in the tournament so far. He has played an instrumental role in India's success in the tournament so far and will be hoping to continue his fantastic run in the upcoming matches.</p>

Virat Kohli breaks Mahela Jayawardene's record, becomes highest run-getter in T20 World Cup history

<p>Cricket remains a religion in India whereas the Indian cricket team's popularity knows no boundaries. The national stars have fan following across the globe. Ahead of Rohit Sharma-led India's crucial Super 12 clash versus Bangladesh in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022 edition, on Wednesday (November 02), a video of a Chinese fan cheering for Team India has gone viral.</p>

<p>In a video shared by journalist Vimal Kumar on his Youtube channel, the fan said, "<em>Bharat Mata ji jai. Main China se hun lekin Bharatiya cricket team ka fan hun main. Maine Hindi khud seseekhi kyunki mujhe bharatiya sanskriti bahot pasand hai. Main Australia ke ek vishvidyalaya mein padhta hun&nbsp;</em>(I am from China. I&nbsp;am a huge fan of the Indian cricket team. I learned Hindi language on my own due to my fondness of the Indian culture. I am from China but&nbsp;I study at a university in Australia)."</p>

<p>India head coach Rahul Dravid said it was disappointing and not a comfortable situation for anyone to be in after a video of Virat Kohli's personal room from his hotel room got leaked on social media. Kohli took to Instagram on Monday to share a video filmed inside his room and lashed out at the breach of his privacy.</p>

<p>The incident happened during India's stay at their team hotel in Perth in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia. Sharing the video on his Instagram, Kohli said it made him feel 'paranoid' about his privacy and that he didn't appreciate such kind of fanaticism.</p>

<p>His post soon went viral, sparking outrage on social media as the cricket fraternity rallied behind the senior India batter. Crown Resorts, the hotel where the incident happened, released a statement confirming that they have laid off the staff involved and the video has also been taken down from their social media accounts.</p>

<p>The hotel issued an apology to Kohli and the rest of the Indian team for the incident and said it was in touch with the ICC over the matter.

<p>"Yeah, obviously it was disappointing. It’s not very comfortable for anyone, let alone Virat. It is disappointing, but yeah, we have flagged it with the relevant authorities. They have taken action and, hopefully, you know incidents like this will not happen, you know, in the future and, hopefully, people are a lot more careful because it’s the only place where you are away from people’s prying eyes and without the media glare on you and without the photographs that you know all of these players have to deal with," Dravid said in the pre-match presser ahead of India's Super 12 clash against Bangladesh on Wednesday.</p>

India head coach Rahul Dravid said it was disappointing and not a comfortable situation for anyone to be in after a video of Virat Kohli's personal room from his hotel room got leaked on social media.

India head coach Rahul Dravid said it was disappointing and not a comfortable situation for anyone to be in after a video of Virat Kohli's personal room from his hotel room got leaked on social media. Kohli took to Instagram on Monday to share a video filmed inside his room and lashed out at the breach of his privacy. The incident happened during India's stay at their team hotel in Perth in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia. Sharing the video on his Instagram, Kohli said it made him feel 'paranoid' about his privacy and that he didn't appreciate such kind of fanaticism. His post soon went viral, sparking outrage on social media as the cricket fraternity rallied behind the senior India batter. Crown Resorts, the hotel where the incident happened, released a statement confirming that they have laid off the staff involved and the video has also been taken down from their social media accounts.

'Not very comfortable for anyone': India head coach Rahul Dravid on Virat Kohli hotel room incident

<p>Team India will face Bangladesh in a crucial Super 12 clash in the T20 World Cup 2022 on Wednesday (November 02). After two successive wins, Rohit Sharma &amp; Co. lost a close game to South Africa at Perth Stadium, Perth on Sunday (October 30). While India's destiny remain in their own hands to reach the semi-finals, they will hope to beat the Bangla Tigers -- who also remain in contention to reach the final four -- and strengthen their chances of progressing ahead.</p>

<p>The last time India and Bangladesh squared off in the T20 WC was in the 2016 edition, held in India. Playing at the M Chinnaswammy Stadium, Bengaluru, the then MS Dhoni-led Men in Blue only managed a modest 146/7 after being asked to bat first. In reply, Bangla Tigers were cruising towards a win, with two needed off the last three balls, before they lost the plot to be restricted to 145/9; losing by a run courtesy of Dhoni's famous run-out.</p>

<p>So far, India and Bangladesh have faced each other thrice in the T20 WC. The one-time winners have won on all occasions. Will the script remain the same this time around as well?&nbsp;</p>

T20 WC 2022, India vs Bangladesh, live cricket streaming: When and where to watch crucial Super 12 tie?

<p>After India's loss to South Africa in their Super 12 clash in the T20 World Cup, in Australia, a huge controversy broke out. A&nbsp;housekeeping staff member at the Crown in Perth shared a video of Virat&nbsp;Kohli's room and shared it on social media. This led the former Indian captain fuming and has prompted reactions from many in the cricketing fraternity.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In the run-up to India's face-off versus Bangladesh, at the Adelaide Oval, Adelaide on Wednesday (November 02), former Indian opener Sunil Gavaskar also joined in and shared his take on the matter, criticising the staff's behaviour.</p>

<p>"Definitely yes. Today, with these phone cameras, there is a very thin line between your privacy and where you are in the public domain. Sometimes you are sitting in the car as well, going to a match or maybe not going to a match, and when a camera is inside and trying to take you. Is that an invasion of privacy? I don't know,"&nbsp;Gavaskar told India Today in an exclusive interview.</p>

<p>"But I think in your hotel room? Yes 100 percent, you need that privacy. Nobody should be doing what was done. I didn't see the video but I heard about it and I think it is simply not done," the Little Master&nbsp;added.</p>

<p>Following Kohli's revelation, the Crown Resorts, where the Indian team stayed in Perth, stated, "The safety and privacy of our guests is our number one priority, and we are incredibly disappointed this incident has occurred. We unreservedly apologise to the guest involved and will continue to take the necessary steps to ensure this remains an isolated incident."</p>

<p>"We have zero tolerance for this behaviour, and it falls well below the standards we set for our team members and contractors. Crown has taken immediate steps to rectify the issue. The individuals involved have been stood down and removed from the Crown account, and the original video was swiftly removed from the social media platform," it added.</p>

'Nobody should be....': Sunil Gavaskar left disappointed by Virat Kohli hotel room incident in Perth

Unidentified individuals entered Indian cricketer Virat Kohli's room in Perth. They filmed his personal belongings and posted the video on social media.

Gravitas: Virat Kohli's hotel room filmed

<p>Senior India batter Virat Kohli vented out his frustration on social media after his privacy was invaded in his hotel room in Australia. Kohli is currently in Australia with the rest of the Indian squad for the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022. The Indian superstar shared a video on social media on Monday (October 31), which appears to have been shot by a fan who somehow managed to get access to his personal room.</p>

<p>While it is not known if the person who filmed inside the Indian cricket star's room was a hotel staff or an outsider, the video certainly didn't go down well with Kohli. The 33-year-old called it an 'absolute invasion of privacy' and said he didn't appreciate such kind of fanaticism where his personal space is not respected.</p>

<p>"I understand that fans get very happy and excited seeing their favourite players and get excited to meet them and I’ve always appreciated that," Kohli wrote.</p>

Senior India batter Virat Kohli vented out his frustration on social media after his privacy was invaded in his hotel room in Australia. Kohli is currently in Australia with the rest of the Indian squad for the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022. The Indian superstar shared a video on social media on Monday (October 31), which appears to have been shot by a fan who somehow managed to get access to his personal room. While it is not known if the person who filmed inside the Indian cricket star's room was a hotel staff or an outsider, the video certainly didn't go down well with Kohli. The 33-year-old called it an 'absolute invasion of privacy' and said he didn't appreciate such kind of fanaticism where his personal space is not respected. "I understand that fans get very happy and excited seeing their favourite players and get excited to meet them and I’ve always appreciated that," Kohli wrote. "But this video here is appalling and it’s made me feel very paranoid about my privacy. If I cannot have privacy in my own hotel room, then where can I really expect any personal space at all?? I’m NOT okay with this kind of fanaticism and absolute invasion of privacy. Please respect people’s privacy and not treat them as a commodity for entertainment," he added.

<p>India lost to South Africa by five wickets in their third Super 12 clash at the Men's T20 World Cup on Sunday (October 30) at the Perth Stadium, Perth. Batting first, India managed only a paltry 133-9 riding on Suryakumar Yadav's 40-ball 68.&nbsp;In reply, SA were 40-3 in ten overs before fifties from Aiden Markram and David Miller lead their side to a win in 19.4 overs as they now occupy the top spot in their group. After the loss, many pointed fingers at Rohit Sharma for choosing R Ashwin to bowl the 18th over, with SA still in need of 25 off the final 18 balls. While Ashwin removed Tristan&nbsp;Stobbs, he conceded two sixes to bring down the equation in favour of the Proteas.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Many thought Hitman had irked with his tactics by not giving the ball to Md Shami or Bhuvneshwar Kumar in the 18th over (with both pacers left with an over each). At the post-match presentation, Rohit explained the thought process behind his move and said, "I've seen what happens with the spinners in the last over, so I wanted to go the other way. If I can finish Ash, I just wanted to make sure that the seamers are bowling the right overs. You have to use it at some point. With the new batter, it was the perfect time for him to bowl. Miller played some good shots as well."</p>

<p>During India's defence, Arshdeep Singh (2 for 25), Md Shami (1 for 13) and Hardik Pandya (1 for 29) were the most effective bowlers whereas Bhuvi also remained economical, raising questions with his swing. However, Ashwin went for plenty as Markram-Miller went after him to ease the pressure. The wily off-spinner ended with 4-0-43-1 but could've gotten the wicket of Markam, in the 12th over, had Virat Kohli held onto a simple catch at the deep.</p>

T20 WC: Rohit Sharma explains thought process behind giving the ball to R Ashwin in 18th over vs SA

<p>The Perth hotel has taken swift action and suspended the individuals involved after Indian cricket team superstar Virat Kohli complained about a breach of privacy on Monday (October 31). Issuing an apology to Kohli and the Indian cricket team, the hotel said the video has been taken down from the social media handles of the concerned individuals.</p>

<p>Kohli took to social media on Monday to express his disappointment after his room was invaded by unknown individuals who filmed inside and posted the video on social media. The former India captain said the video was 'appalling' and made him feel 'paranoid' about his own privacy.</p>

<p>After huge outrage from the cricket fraternity, Crown Resorts, the hotel in question where the Indian team stayed in Perth, said it was incredibly disappointed over the incident. The hotel confirmed that&nbsp;all individuals concerned have been stood down and that further investigation is being conducted into the matter.</p>

<p>"The safety and privacy of our guests is our number one priority, and we are incredibly disappointed this incident has occurred. We unreservedly apologise to the guest involved and will continue to take the necessary steps to ensure this remains an isolated incident," Crown said in a statement.</p>

The Perth hotel has taken swift action and suspended the individuals involved after Indian cricket team superstar Virat Kohli complained about a breach of privacy on Monday (October 31).

The Perth hotel has taken swift action and suspended the individuals involved after Indian cricket team superstar Virat Kohli complained about a breach of privacy on Monday (October 31). Issuing an apology to Kohli and the Indian cricket team, the hotel said the video has been taken down from the social media handles of the concerned individuals. Kohli took to social media on Monday to express his disappointment after his room was invaded by unknown individuals who filmed inside and posted the video on social media. The former India captain said the video was 'appalling' and made him feel 'paranoid' about his own privacy. After huge outrage from the cricket fraternity, Crown Resorts, the hotel in question where the Indian team stayed in Perth, said it was incredibly disappointed over the incident. The hotel confirmed that all individuals concerned have been stood down and that further investigation is being conducted into the matter. "The safety and privacy of our guests is our number one priority, and we are incredibly disappointed this incident has occurred. We unreservedly apologise to the guest involved and will continue to take the necessary steps to ensure this remains an isolated incident," Crown said in a statement.

Perth hotel issues apology, suspends staff who leaked video of Virat Kohli's personal room

<p>Indian actress Anushka Sharma has slammed certain who purportedly entered her husband Virat Kohli's hotel room, made a video and then leaked it online.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Virat had shared the post earlier on his Instagram handle and Anushka reshared it on her Instagram stories asking fans "Where is the line?"</p>

<p>"Have experienced a few incidents where some fans have shown no compassion or grace in the past but this really is the worst thing. An absolute disgrace and violation of a human being and anyone who sees this and thinks celebrity <em>ho toh deal Karna padega</em> (If you are a celebrity then you will have to deal with this) should know that you are also part of the problem."&nbsp;<br />
<br />
She added, "Exercising some self-control helps everyone. Also, if this is happening in your bedroom then where is the line?"</p>

Believe it or not! Virat Kohli drops a sitter in T20 World Cup match against South Africa - Watch

<p>Virat Kohli on Sunday added another feather to his illustrious cap by achieving a huge milestone in his T20I career. The senior India batter became the first player from the country to complete 1,000 runs in the T20 World Cup and the second overall to achieve the feat.</p>

<p>Kohli, who has been enjoying a purple patch in the ongoing T20 World Cup in Australia, didn't have an ideal outing against the Proteas on Sunday but did enough to breach the 1000 run-mark in the T20 World Cup. Kohli needed 11 runs to achieve the feat and scored 12 to become the first Indian to do so.</p>

<p>Kohli is also on the brink of becoming the highest run-getter in the history of the T20 World Cup. He now has 1,001 runs to his name in 24 matches at the T20 World Cup at a brilliant average of&nbsp;83.41, and a strike rate of over 131, including 12 fifties.</p>

<p>He is currently the second-highest run-getter in the T20 World Cup and is just 16 runs short of surpassing Sri Lanka legend Mahela Jayawardene, who occupies the top spot with 1016 runs to his name in 31 matches. Kohli is almost certain to surpass Jayawardene's tally in the ongoing World Cup considering his top-notch form.</p>

<p>On Sunday, Kohli arrived early in the middle after India got off to a shaky start against South Africa. They lost captain Rohit Sharma cheaply on 15 off 14 balls after te Hitman miscued a shot trying to go big. KL Rahul followed suit as his struggles continued with the right-hander managing only 9 off 14 balls.</p>

<p>Kohli looked in great touch as he smacked back-to-back boundaries against Lungi Ngidi in the seventh over but got dismissed by the South African pacer after a stunning catch from Kagiso Rabada at long leg. India's woes were further intensified after Deepak Hooda, who came in at number 5, was sent packing on a duck leavng the team reeling on 42/4 inside just 8 overs.</p>

Virat Kohli becomes first Indian player to achieve massive T20 World Cup milestone

<p>Virat Kohli will be on the cusp of achieving an elusive T20 World Cup record when India lock horns with South Africa in their third Super 12 clash in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022 on Sunday (October 30).

<p>Kohli has been enjoying a purple patch with the willow as he has already scored half-centuries in India's first two matches.

<p>Kohli is now on the cusp of breaking an elusive T20 World Cup record in the upcoming clash against South Africa at the Perth Stadium in Perth. He is just 28 runs short of surpassing Sri Lanka legend Mahela Jayawardene to become the leading run-getter in the history of the T20 World Cup.</p>

Virat Kohli on cusp of breaking elusive T20 World Cup record in India's clash against South Africa

<p>Virat Kohli produced one of the finest knocks of his career as his unbeaten 82 helped India down Pakistan in a last-ball thriller in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022 on Thursday. Kohli helped India snatch victory from the jaws of defeat with a monumental effort in yet another run chase to prove why he is regarded as&nbsp;one of the best in the world.</p>

<p>India were left in a spot of bother after losing four wickets early in the 160-run chase against Pakistan at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). However, Kohi combined with Hardik Pandya to bail the Men in Blue out of trouble and help them register one or the most memorable victories against the arch-rivals in recent times.</p>

<p>Former Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir has lavished huge praise on Kohli after his match-winning knock against Babar Azam &amp; Co. and said only he could have pulled it off. Amir called Kohli the best of the current era and said he should not be compared to anyone.</p>

<p>Kohli, who is currently the leading run-getter in T20Is is already sixth on the list of highest run-getters in international cricket with over 24000 runs to his name across all three formats. The Indian batting maestro has ofetn been compared with the likes of Steve Smith and Joe Root among others but Amir believes he remains ahead of them all.</p>

Virat Kohli is the best in this era, he cannot be compared, says former Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir

<p>The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president Roger Binny has heaped praise on senior India batter Virat Kohli after his stunning knock against Pakistan in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022. Kohli smashed an unbeaten 82 against Babar Azam &amp; Co. to help India secure a 4-wicket win in a last-ball thriller at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Thursday.</p>

<p>In pursuit of a tricky target of 160 runs, India were in deep trouble when the Men in Blue were left reeling at 31/4 inside just seven overs after losing their top order in no time. However, Kohli combined with Hardik Pandya to pull India back into the contest and set up a nail-biting win for the team.</p>

<p>Speaking at his felicitation ceremony at the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) on Friday, Binny, who recently took charge as the new BCCI president said watching Kohli bat against Pakistan was a dream for him. The 1983 World Cup winner said it was a fantastic win for India and a game that every fan wanted to watch.</p>

<p>"It was like a dream for me. Couldn't realise the way the ball was being hit in the park by Kohli. It was a fantastic victory. You never see such matches where most of the time the match was in Pakistan's favour and all of a sudden it came back to India. Good for the game as it's what the crowd wants to see," said Binny.</p>

<p>Kohli was under tremendous pressure earlier this year having dealt with a prolonged lean patch with the willow in all formats of the game. Nothing seemed to be going right for the senior India batter, however, he made a strong comeback in the Asia Cup earlier this year where he notched up his 71st international century before continuing his purple patch in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022.</p>

Virat Kohli didn't have to prove himself: BCCI president Roger Binny lauds India star after T20 WC heroics

<p>Rohit Sharma-led India have been on a roll in the T20 World Cup. Commencing their run in the Super 12 round, the one-time winners edged past Pakistan on the last ball to open their campaign in style, with a four-wicket win in pursuit of 160 at the MCG, Melbourne on October 23 (Sunday).</p>

<p>After that, India faced the Netherlands and romped past them by 56 runs, on Thursday (October 27), at the SCG, Sydney, to make it two wins in a row. Thus, India are currently at the top of Group B and have a strong chance of entering the semi-finals of the showpiece event in Australia. Despite their bright start, former Indian captain Kapil Dev pointed out the 'loopholes' in the Indian team.</p>

<p>"The bowling has gotten better. In batting, I felt India could have scored more runs but in the last 10 overs, made up for it by scoring over 100 runs. See, the grounds are big and hence, the spinners gain a little bit of advantage. I would still say that in patches we are still lacking in bowling," Kapil said on ABP News on Thursday.</p>

<p>"Against a team like Netherlands, you should have proper planning as to where to bowl in terms of line and length. The biggest thing is that in such matches, there should not be no-balls or wides because you are practicing and need to win the match as well. So overall, I would say, the bowling was good but still some loopholes were visible," he added.</p>

'We're still lacking in...' - Kapil Dev mentions Team India's areas of concern despite bright start at T20 WC

<p>India and Pakistan produced a humdinger of a clash when they locked horns in the Super 12 round of the Men's T20 World Cup (T20 WC) on Sunday (October 23), at the iconic MCG, Melbourne. Bowling first, India restriced Pakistan for 159-8 riding on three-wicket hauls from Arshdeep Singh and Hardik Pandya.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In reply, India were on the back foot and tottering at 31 for 4. Virat Kohli (82 not out) and Hardik (37-ball 40) revived the run-chase with an impressive 113-run fifth-wicket stand before the last over started with India needing 16 for a win. Hardik fell and Dinesh Karthik also returned back to the pavillion, with India requiring two from the final delivery.&nbsp;</p>

<p>R Ashwin came out in the middle. Holding his nerves, Ashwin confidently left a delivery from Md Nawaz, which was called a wide to level the scores. After that, he smacked a four on the last ball of the contest to take India to a famous four-wicket win at the jam-packed stadium.</p>

<p>Recalling that Nawaz delivery which was a wide, Ashwin hilariously stated on BCCI.TV during an interaction with&nbsp;Hrishikesh Kanitkar, "If that ball of Nawaz turned and hit my pad then only one thing I do was back to dressing room and picked my Twitter and write 'Thank you so much, It was wonderful my cricketing career and Journey and thank you all (laughs)'."</p>

WATCH: 'If that ball of Md Nawaz turned and hit my pad...' - R Ashwin recalls last over drama vs Pakistan

<p>Team India started their T20 World Cup 2022 edition with a memorable win over arch-rivals Pakistan at the iconic MCG, Melbourne on Sunday (October 23). Having won the toss and opting to bowl first, India rode on three-fers from Arshdeep Singh and all-rounder Hardik Pandya to restrict Pakistan to 159 for 8.</p>

<p>In reply, India were tottering at 31 for 4, losing their skipper Rohit Sharma (4) and vice-captain KL Rahul for cheap. However, Virat Kohli produced a masterclass, 82 not out off 53 balls, and was well-supported by Hardik (40) to take India past the finish line courtesy of a four from R Ashwin's blade on the last ball of the contest. Now, the action shifts to the Netherlands face-off as India will aim to keep their winning streak alive.</p>

<p>India will take on the Dutch line-up, at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG), Sydney. This will be the first face-off between both sides in the format. So far, India have faced Netherlands twice in ODI World Cup -- in 2003 and 2011. Hence, a new challenge will be infront of the Indian team when they take the field versus the Netherlands line-up.</p>

<p>Given Ireland stunned 2010 winners England on Wednesday (October 26), India won't take the Netherlands lightly. With no experience of playing them whatsoever in the format, India will start cautiously before trying to explode. As per the conditions, a used pitch will be on offer for the India-Dutch encounter, given it is the second encounter of the day (after South Africa vs Bangladesh). A similar sort of pitch can be expected, as it was in the Super 12 opener featuring Australia and New Zealand, but with lesser bounce. Thus, slower bowlers can come to play. Toss will be crucial and the captains can look to bat first, on a surface which might get slower. However, with rain forecast, bowling first is also an option.</p>

Team India started their T20 World Cup 2022 edition with a memorable win over arch-rivals Pakistan at the iconic MCG, Melbourne on Sunday (October 23). Having won the toss and opting to bowl first, India rode on three-fers from Arshdeep Singh and all-rounder Hardik Pandya to restrict Pakistan to 159 for 8. In reply, India were tottering at 31 for 4, losing their skipper Rohit Sharma (4) and vice-captain KL Rahul for cheap. However, Virat Kohli produced a masterclass, 82 not out off 53 balls, and was well-supported by Hardik (40) to take India past the finish line courtesy of a four from R Ashwin's blade on the last ball of the contest. Now, the action shifts to the Netherlands face-off as India will aim to keep their winning streak alive. India will take on the Dutch line-up, at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG), Sydney. This will be the first face-off between both sides in the format. So far, India have faced Netherlands twice in ODI World Cup -- in 2003 and 2011. Hence, a new challenge will be infront of the Indian team when they take the field versus the Netherlands line-up.

Given Ireland stunned 2010 winners England on Wednesday (October 26), India won't take the Netherlands lightly. With no experience of playing them whatsoever in the format, India will start cautiously before trying to explode. As per the conditions, a used pitch will be on offer for the India-Dutch encounter, given it is the second encounter of the day (after South Africa vs Bangladesh). A similar sort of pitch can be expected, as it was in the Super 12 opener featuring Australia and New Zealand, but with lesser bounce. Thus, slower bowlers can come to play.

India vs Netherlands, T20 WC 2022: Predicting Men in Blue's likely XI for crucial tie

<p>Team India faced the Netherlands in their second Super 12 clash at the Men's T20 World Cup (T20 WC) on Thursday (October 27). Playing at the Sydney Cricket Ground, SCG, Rohit Sharma-led India produced a clinical performance to go past the Dutch line-up by 56&nbsp;runs.</p>

<p>Opting to bat first, India were off to a slow start and lost vice-captain KL Rahul (9). While he was trapped lbw, had he taken the decision upstairs, it would've allowed him to continue his inning. However, Rohit was joined by in-form batter Virat Kohli as the duo tried to accelerate after India only managed 32&nbsp;for 1 in the first six overs.</p>

<p>Rohit took on the likes of&nbsp;Bas de Leede and Logan van Beek to up the ante and took the score to 67 for 1. From thereon, he attacked&nbsp;Tim Pringle&nbsp;and reached the 50-run mark, second by an Indian in T20 WC, and also achieved the massive feat of having the most sixes by an Indian in tournament history. Against the run of play, he was dismissed for 53.</p>

<p>Following his departure, Suryakumar Yadav and Kohli stitched an impressive and unbeaten 95-run third-wicket stand as India posted 179-2 in 20 overs. SKY scored the fourth-fastest fifty by an Indian in the T20 WC whereas Kohli continued his merry run, scoring an unbeaten 44-ball 62.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In reply, the Netherlands' line-up was never in the run-chase. Bhuvneshwar Kumar started with two successive maiden overs whereas the likes of Md Shami, Axar Patel, and R Ashwin dented the run-chase with regular strikes.

<p>India's fielding was upto the mark whereas the Rohit-Rahul Dravid-led team management will be satisfied with the bowling effort as well. It was a disciplined performance from the one-time winners, who now atop their group with four points from two games.</p>
