As the euphoria around Virat Kohli-orchestrated Indian win over Pakistan is still settling, the 1983 World Cup-winning member Madan Lal says the ‘Men in Blue’ must not rely on the heroics of just one or two players if they are to lift the T20 World Cup trophy. Kohli was at his imperious best against a decent Pakistan attack as he single-handedly piloted India to memorable four-wicket win at the iconic MCG on Sunday.
His 53-ball unbeaten 82 is being celebrated as one of the greatest T20 knocks.
Former India pacer Madan Lal feels India’s openers need to provide a solid start and it’s too early to say if the momentum is with India after just one victory since “in T20 cricket you never know.”
“Virat Kohli’s innings was amazing. I have never seen an innings like that but Virat Kohli is not going to win you every match. It’s such a big tournament. It can’t be won by one person,” Lal told PTI in an interview.
