Indian cricket team’s captain Virat Kohli turns 33 on friday November 5. On this same day, India has the T20 World Cup match against Scotland in Dubai and Indian team will try its best to give a present to Virat Kohli by winning this match with good run rate.
In the ongoing T20 World Cup, Virat Kohli led India has lost its first two matches. First is from Pakistan by 10 wickets and another one is from New Zealand by 8 wickets. But India’s chance of going into the semi-final is still alive as India won its third match against Afghanistan by 66 runs.
Pakistan has already reached in the semi-final by winning 4 straight games. If New Zealand loses either of its next two matches and if India wins its two matches against Scotland and Namibia with good run rate then India can qualify for the semi-final.
Virat Kohli hit half-century in the first match against Pakistan but it couldn’t let India win. Virat Kohli had made his Cricket debut in 2008. He has played 254 ODIs, 96 Tests, 93 T20Is so far and made total 12169 scores in 254 ODIs, 7765 scores in 96 tests and 3225 scores in 93 T20Is.
After MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli has been doing the captaincy of India but now he has announced that he will step down as T20 captain after this world cup. Team India didn’t win any ICC trophy under his captaincy which is also the main reason of his step down as captain but as a player he has created many records in all the three formats.
Virat Kohli has also been doing the captaincy of IPL team Royal Challengers Bangalore for nine years but he has also said goodbye to the captaincy of RCB this year. Kohli is one of the most prominent players of India and Indian team is incomplete without him.
Indian cricket players, politicians and celebrities are wishing him on his 33rd birthday. Virat Kohli has 9 months old baby girl Vamika. His wife Anushka Sharma also wished him on social media by sharing the photo and writing a long caption.
