I feel bowling is Pakistan’s strength: Virat Kohli
Ahead of the India-Pakistan clash, Kohli is expected to do well against Pakistan. After all, in ODIs, the right-hander has played 13 games and has 536 runs averaging 48.72. Not to forget, he single-handedly won a last-ball encounter in the T20 World Cup 2022.
Meanwhile, ahead of the Asia Cup 2023 game, the Delhi player has said that Pakistan’s bowling is their strength.
“I feel bowling is their strength. And they’ve got some really impactful bowlers that can change the course of the game anytime based on their skill set.
So, you have to be at your absolute best to face them,” he told Star Sports.
Since last December, the former Royal Challengers Bangalore player has been one of the consistent players in ODI cricket. At that time, he ended his three-year century drought in ODI cricket
“I don’t think you can perform consistently without that mindset because if your performance is your only goal, then you can be satisfied and stop working hard. There is no limit to it.
“There is no set achievement that if you reach a certain stage, you’ve reached excellence. I think I strive for betterment everyday, so that is a better word to use, and yes, performance obviously becomes a by-product because your mindset is ‘How do I make my team win from this position?”
This is how Twitter reacted
If any Indian would dare to flash a Babar Azam Picture in any Indian Cricket Ground. He would be declared Anti National on the Spot by fellow Spectators

The difference between Indians and Pakistanis, we respect all legends of the game. Indians disrespect cricket players.
