‘This is the first game of the tournament, not the last’: Virat Kohli after India’s 10-wicket drubbing against Pakistan

Virat Kohli’s India team had a difficult start in their T20 World Cup journey as they suffered a 10-match defeat against Pakistan in their first game in Dubai on Sunday.

Although Kohli did save the team with a bat, scoring 57 points with 49 balls, he failed to maintain India’s perfect record against Pakistan in the show. Before the start of the game, India remained unbeaten with neighboring Pakistan in the World Cup, whether it was T20 and ODI.

After being invited to hit the bat first, Shaheen Afridi welcomed India with breathtaking speed as he fired good hitters Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul in a strong game. Kohli then showed some resistance in the middle as India managed to post a respectable 151/7 on the board after 20 overs.

In response, Pakistan’s opening combination Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan made some wonderful shots, helping their team to end the game with more than two overs. Captain Kohli shared his insights on what went wrong with the Blue Man. He said that Pakistan’s execution on the court is the main difference between the two sides.

“We did not execute it correctly. To our commendation, Pakistan’s performance today surpassed us. They started very well, and 3 wickets with 20 runs were not a good start. We needed wickets very early, but there were With the bat, they absolutely gave us no chance.” Kohli told the host broadcaster Star Sports after the game.

“It played very slowly in the first half. After 10 overs, the batting line is not as easy as the second half. We need 15-20 extra runs. For this, we need a good start, but Pakistan’s Bowling didn’t allow us to get extra runs,” he added.

Kohli also dismissed the idea of ​​deploying additional slow bowlers, saying that the move would be invalid due to dew. “We can make another argument for a slower bowler, but it’s important to stay calm and understand our advantage, because the slower bowler can’t play a role either. This is only the first game of the tournament, not the game. The first game. Finally,” Kohli said.

This is the first time India has lost T20I by ten wickets. Coincidentally, this is the first time Pakistan has won T20I with ten wickets. India will next face New Zealand on October 31 (Sunday), and Pakistan will face the same opponent on October 26 (Tuesday).
