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.
1. Most 50+ scores in T20Is in Australia
Australia has always been Kohli’s happy hunting ground and the veteran batter has notched up loads and loads of runs down under. In the ongoing T20 extravaganza, he again proved his mettle in seam-friendly conditions and took the top-drawer bowling line-ups to the cleaners.
The 34-year-old featured in six games at the marquee tournament and scored 296 runs at a strike rate of 136.40. This comprised four majestic half-centuries. With his fourth fifty in the semi-final clash against England, Kohli surpassed Aaron Finch (8) and David Warner (8) to become the player with the most number of half-centuries in T20Is on Australian soil.
The ace batter’s sensational run at the global event has made his T20I numbers in Australia even more staggering. Kohli has scored 747 runs in 17 T20Is at an insane average of 74.70 and a strike rate of 141.20. Given the Delhi-born is still at the peak of his powers, one might witness more of his batting brilliance down under.
