Virat Kohli Goes Past Mahela Jayawardene

The dashing right-handed batter now has become the leading run scorer in T20 World Cup. He went past Legendary Sri Lankan batter Mahela Jayawardene’s tally of 1,016 runs. Virat Kohli now has made a habit of breaking records as the batter looks threatening.

Crucial Match for Bangladesh

This match for Bangladesh is a do-or-die match as a loss would mean that they are out of the tournament. They have a strenuous task on their hands as chasing against India won’t be easy by any means. They would rely on Shakib Al Hasan to play a captain’s knock in these tough times.

India on the other hand, would be hoping to register a comprehensive win after their below-par performance against South Africa. The Men in Blue would be well aware of the fact that Bangladesh would be quite fearless in its approach.
