While Virat Kohli was the top run scorer in the just ended Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, his bizarre form has so far failed him in the T20 World Cup. He scored one, four, and zero against Pakistan, Ireland, and the USA in the first three games, respectively. But the Men in Blue prevailed in each of the three meetings to guarantee their place in the Super Eight round.
When India plays Canada on Saturday, June 15, at the CBRP Stadium Turf Ground in Lauderhill, Florida, Aakash Chopra predicted that Virat Kohli would win Player of the Match.
In India’s last Group A match against Canada, Chopra tipped Kohli to bounce back from his recent setbacks and win. In addition, the former cricket player turned broadcaster projected runs for team skipper Rohit Sharma, who has struggled at the plate in the past two games following his half-century against Ireland.
“If this game takes place, I think Virat Kohli might win man of the match.
I am anticipating runs from the bats of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. If Kuldeep Yadav plays, I anticipate that he will take at least three wickets in his bowling attack. “I think Ravindra Jadeja will eventually make a name for himself and take wickets,” Chopra posted on his YouTube account.
I see Mohammed Siraj being replaced by Kuldeep Yadav: Aakash Chopra thought that with Florida’s spin-friendly conditions, Kuldeep Yadav may replace Mohammed Siraj in the team.

“One change to the team may occur. The Florida pitch usually turns and aids the spinners, therefore Kuldeep Yadav might be brought in and a quick bowler might have to be left out. Kuldeep Yadav is playing, I notice. That’s about it, he continued. “Kuldeep Yadav in lieu of Siraj—unfortunate, I know.
With an economy rate of just 6.50, Siraj has bowled well thus far in the 20-team competition. But with just one wicket in three games, he hasn’t been among the wicket-takers. He might make way for Kuldeep, who performed well in the IPL on fast-paced pitches and could be important in the West Indies, where spin is anticipated.
