ODI World Cup Final 2023: India vs Australia World Cup Final - Top player battles to watch out for

5. Virat Kohli v Adam Zampa

While Virat Kohli is in superb form with the bat in the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023, he has a glaring weakness that Australia might exploit early on in his innings. Kohli has scored 711 runs, with 3 centuries and 5 fifties in the ODI World Cup. He also completed 50 ODI centuries in the semi-final vs. New Zealand. But the chink in his armour is facing leg-spinners who can turn the ball big. Adam Zampa is a bowler who has troubled him in recent times.
