5 memorable ODI triumphs under Virat Kohli’s captaincy
Not winning an ICC title remained a void but Kohli had an amazing run as a captain, he had a phenomenal record that will be cherished forever.
1. India defeated Pakistan in ICC World Cup 2019
On July 22nd, 2019, there was the seventh India vs Pakistan world cup encounter going to take place. Like any other India-Pakistan game, this was also tensed and hyped battle. And the whole of India was expecting India to win for the seventh time in a row. There was plenty of quality cricket, but nearly all of them were from one side.
Kohli’s men batted first and put 336 on the board and showed a quality display of batting with Rohit Sharma scoring 140 and the skipper and KL Rahul scoring 77 and 57 respectively and Hardik Pandya also played a good cameo.
Rain affected the Pakistan innings and they got a revised target of 302 in 40 overs but the Indian bowlers did a fantastic job and restricted them for only 212 despite good innings from Fakhar Zaman and Babar Azam and India registered its seventh win as expected.
