T20 World Cup 2022: 5 Records Virat Kohli broke during the tournament
Virat Kohli was at his best at the T20 World Cup 2022 and played many astonishing knocks in the competition.
3. Most Player of the Match awards in T20Is
During India’s chase against Pakistan, the Men in Blue were staring down the barrel at 31 for 4, and hopes of making a comeback into the game were quite grim. But Kohli rose to the occasion and played a thunderous knock to get his team across the line.
The 34-year-old was adjudged the Player of the Match for his breathtaking innings. It was Kohli’s 14th Player of the Match award and it saw him surpass Mohammad Nabi’s tally of 13 and bag the bragging rights of becoming the player with the most POTM awards in T20Is.
Again, when the Men in Blue clashed with Bangladesh in their third game of the ongoing T20 carnival, Kohli set the stage ablaze with a spectacular knock of 64* runs off 44 deliveries. His superb half-century proved to be a match-winning one as the Bangla Tigers lost the game by five runs (DLS method). The ace batter was given yet another Player of the Match award to take his tally to 15.
