The former skipper of Pakistan National Cricket Team Inzamam-ul-Haq showered words of praise on the Indian National Cricket Team for their incredible display of cricketing skills against New Zealand. He believes the presence of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma is a big blessing for the Indian team. Highlighting the same, Inzamam gave three reasons why India is such a successful side at the moment.

In the three games so far, KL Rahul, Shreyas Iyer and Rohit were the chief contributors for India to seal the T20I series. While Rohit performed well in the third game, Iyer and Rahul played exceptional knocks in Auckland to give the advantage for India in the five-match T20I series.

Speaking of India’s success, Inzamam explained that India got two superstars in Rohit and Kohli, who will be helped by the likes of Rahul and Iyer, who can change the complexion of the game.

The Pakistani legend also highlighted the morality of the Indian team and their strength as a unit on the field.

“They have two very big players. One is Rohit Sharma and the other is Virat Kohli. They are very big players. But you cannot win away with only two players. That’s where KL Rahul, Iyer come into play. They have taken the moral of the team to different heights. The strength of the team lies in when you still get a hold of the match despite your two big players getting out early,” Inzamam said in his Youtube channel.

Positive body language of Virat Kohli:

Secondly, Inzamam said it is India’s bowling led by Jasprit Bumrah that creates a lot of difference. He feels that the brilliance of Bumrah helped other bowlers to come good.

The third reason that Inzamam gave behind India’s success was captain Virat Kohli’s attitude and body language.

 “The kind of bowling that Bumrah is doing has given an edge to the other bowlers. He’s become the No.1 bowler with his arrival. Shami is good, the spinners are bowling well. The body language of the captain defines the team’s approach. The aggression and positive body language of Virat Kohli travel in the team. That has motivated all the Indian players to play positively with aggression,” Inzamam said.

Well, as Inzamam said, the Indian team is blessed with the likes of Kohli and Rohit, who have been consistent performers for India over the years.

The addition of Rahul and Iyer further added to their strength alongside the bowling department.
