Australian Ex Captain About Virat Kohli’s Enduring T20 Brilliance

As the cricketing world gears up for the ICC T20 World Cup, the conversation around Virat Kohli’s place in India’s T20I setup has reignited. However, former Australian captain Aaron Finch has slammed such doubts, labeling them as “the biggest rubbish” he has ever heard. Kohli, according to Finch, is the greatest white-ball player he has ever witnessed, and his ability to deliver in crunch situations is unparalleled.

Kohli’s recent exploits in the Indian Premier League (IPL) have further silenced his critics. His majestic 77 off 49 balls against Punjab Kings showcased his ability to adapt to different situations, scoring at a blistering pace when required while anchoring the innings when wickets fell. Kohli himself acknowledged the constant chatter around his T20 credentials, stating that his name is often used to promote the format, and he “still got it.”

With staggering numbers in T20I cricket, Kohli’s reputation as a T20 titan is unassailable. He is the highest run-scorer in the format, amassing 4,037 runs at an average of 51.75 and a strike rate of 138.28. His prowess in ICC T20 World Cups is equally impressive, with 1,141 runs at an average of 81.50 and a strike rate of 131.30, making him the leading run-scorer in the tournament’s history. Kohli’s knocks in crunch games, such as his unbeaten 82 against Pakistan in the 2022 edition, further cement his legacy as a T20 legend.
