He has now continued his rich vein of run-scoring in the 20-20 World Cup 2022 as well where he has scored 246 runs in five innings at a stunning average of 123 with three half-centuries and at an outstanding strike rate of 138.98. He has been one of the pillars in the middle order for India in this 20-20 World Cup.

Ahead of the semi-final against England, Kohli suffered an injury scare while batting in the nets when a ball from Harshal Patel hit Virat Kohli. If the injury is a big concern, then it will be a huge blow for India heading into the semi-finals.

Kohli endured a tough time for three years with the bat as he was not scoring runs as consistently as he used to and also a century abated Kohli for a long time. He has been a wonderful servant of Indian cricket as a batter and a captain where he has led with a lot of conviction for a long period of time before being out of favour as skipper and being replaced by Rohit Sharma.

Kohli has been a charismatic batter and a talisman for India he has scored 3958 runs at an average of 52.77 and at a strike rate of 138.15. He has got 36 fifties and one hundred to his credit in the shortest format of the game.

When it comes to the Indian T20 League, his statistics are second to none as he has been involved with the Bangalore franchise since the inception of the league in 2008 where he has scored 6076 runs in 199 matches played in the Indian T20 League. His best season for the Bold army was in 2016 where he scored 973 from 16 games.
