IND vs PAK: Prior to the intense Super 4 match between India and Pakistan, former Indian captain Virat Kohli was spotted training. On Sunday, September 4th, the game is scheduled to take place. India took revenge for their ICC T20 World Cup 2021 defeat by duping Pakistan in the Group Stage encounter.
Pakistan will now be prepared to recover and declare that they are not to be taken lightly. The Pakistan Cricket Team is aware that India won’t be a simple opponent. Fortunately for India, both Virat Kohli and Suryakumar are in a strong form right now.
The Indian Cricket Team will be hopeful that Rohit Sharma, the captain, too regains his form. Knowing how vicious an in-form Rohit may be at any particular time is not rocket science after all.
For the Men in Green, Virat Kohli’s form has been a bad omen. The star Indian batter has a track record of dominating matches versus Pakistan. Apart from close outcomes, head coach Rahul Dravid would prefer a complete performance from the side.

Virat Kohli Engages in Intense Training After Showing Signs of Regaining His Form
Fitness is something that Virat Kohli takes very seriously. In a recent video, the athletic batter could be seen sporting a sports high-altitude mask. Additionally, he was observed running and doing sprints.
The 33-year-old is really eager to turn singles into doubles and is aware of the value of racing between the wickets. In T20Is, the focus is on clearing the fence. As a result, the batters place less emphasis on rotating strikes.
In preparation for India’s upcoming match against Pakistan, a video of Virat working out in training has now surfaced. He is clearly seen taking quick sprints in the footage. To boost his endurance, the batter was also seen donning a high-altitude mask.

The batter was in superb form while playing against Hong Kong, as he amassed 59 runs in 44 balls. He also appeared to be in command as he was seen consistently rotating the strike.
Virat was observed striking the ball forcefully and neatly. Additionally, everyone had a peek at Virat Kohli’s former self, who was always up for battle. However, Virat is aware that his performance against Pakistan wasn’t particularly strong.
Despite the batter’s 35 runs in 34 balls, he appeared scratchy. There were also a few near misses and a dropped catch. Virat will also be conscious of the fact that his off-side weakness would be attacked once more. Naseem Shah demonstrated his ability to take the ball from the batter in the previous match. Nonetheless, it will be interesting to watch Kohli’s performance against Pakistan.
