Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav joined forces to rattle the Netherlands bowling attack as they helped Team India post a massive total of 179 runs against the Netherlands in T20 World Cup 2022 on Thursday at Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG).
Earlier, the Indian side got off to the worst possible start as KL Rahul was dismissed for just nine runs, but Virat Kohli picked up from where he left off against Pakistan as he joined Rohit Sharma on the crease. Rohit roared back to form with a solid 50. He and Kohli stitched a 73-run stand for the second wicket. After Rohit’s dismissal, Virat Kohli took care of the scoring rate. And there he got good support from SKY.
Yadav and Kohli accelerated the innings for India as they compiled 95 runs off 48 balls. Yadav scored 51 off 25 balls, while on the other hand, Kohli ended with 62 off 44 balls.
