‘Hardik ki jawabdaari puri karte hue King’ – Fans react as Virat Kohli gets spotted bowling to Shubman Gill in nets ahead of clash against England

Cricket fans around the world are buzzing with excitement as Virat Kohli, the former Indian cricket team captain, was spotted bowling to India’s young sensation Shubman Gill during a net session in preparation for an upcoming clash against England on Sunday in Lucknow. 

Kohli, known for his batting prowess, surprised fans by taking up the ball and sharing his bowling skills with Gill, a young and promising talent in the Indian team. This unexpected gesture by Kohli has garnered widespread attention, igniting speculation about possible strategies India might employ against England. 

Notably, during India’s recent ODI World Cup 2023 match against Bangladesh, Kohli was spotted taking the ball and finishing an over due to an injury to India’s star player, Hardik Pandya, who left the field for scans while bowling.

Brilliant performance by India in ODI World Cup 2023 so far

Under the leadership of Rohit Sharma, the Indian team has arrived in Lucknow for their sixth match of the tournament with a pristine record, having not suffered a single loss. The Indian cricket squad are currently standing at the top of the points table, amassing a solid 10 points and maintaining an impressive net run rate of +1.353, instilling great confidence in their performance after just five matches.

Unfortunately, the Men in Blue have encountered a setback as Pandya is still on the path to full recovery and is likely to miss two or three upcoming matches. While India may not feel his absence significantly against England, as the English side is currently struggling in the tournament, the upcoming clash against South Africa on November 5 is highly anticipated. The Proteas have lost just one game so far and have been dominant with their all-round performances, recovering well after a surprising loss to the Netherlands by winning two matches.
