Asia Cup - Ravi Shastri - If Virat Kohli gets a fifty in the very first game, mouths will be shut for the rest of the tournament: Ravi Shastri - timesofindia.indiatimes.com - Australia - Zimbabwe - India - Pakistan

If Virat Kohli gets a fifty in the very first game, mouths will be shut for the rest of the tournament: Ravi Shastri

Ravi Shastri has claimed that if talismanic India batter Virat Kohli gets a fifty in the side's match against Pakistan in the Asia Cup on August 28, then the mouths of critics will be quiet for the rest of the tournament. If he features in India's Asia Cup opener against Pakistan, dubbed as the 'greatest rivalry' in cricketing world, it will also mark Kohli's 100th T20I appearance. Kohli returns to the Indian team for the Asia Cup in T20I format, having last featured for the national team during the tour of England in July. He was then rested for white-ball tour of West Indies and ODIs against Zimbabwe. Kohli has been in a prolonged lean patch, having not scored a century in international cricket since November 2019.

"Be A Little Bit Risky...": How To Dismiss Babar Azam, Ex-New Zealand Star Explains

Pakistan skipper Babar Azam is undoubtedly one of the best batters in the world on current form. After his ODI debut in 2016, the 27-year-old batter has played 92 matches, scoring 4664 runs and 17 centuries. Babar also has great numbers in Tests and T20Is, scoring 3122 and 2686 runs respectively. Currently, Babar is preparing for the upcoming Asia Cup, where Pakistan will square off against arch-rivals India in their opening game on August 28. As the match is just around the corner, former New Zealand all-rounder Scott Styris called Babar the "number one man going around" and said that a "special delivery" will be needed to dismiss the Pakistan skipper.

Asia Cup - Virat Kohli is tired and running out of time, says former Zimbabwe all-rounder Dirk Viljoen - timesofindia.indiatimes.com - Australia - Zimbabwe - India

Virat Kohli is tired and running out of time, says former Zimbabwe all-rounder Dirk Viljoen

Virat Kohli will be back in action at the upcoming Asia Cup. It's fair to say that most, if not all, eyes will be on Kohli, who was rested for the tours of West Indies and Zimbabwe. The upcoming Asia Cup, starting August 27, in many ways will be a testing ground for the selectors to assess Indian talent ahead of the T20 World Cup in Australia later this year. The million dollar question is - if Virat doesn't come good with the bat with consistent high scores etc, will his spot in the T20 World Cup squad be in danger? WHAT THE NUMBERS SAYKohli hasn't scored an international century since November 2019, but it would be incorrect and unfair to say that he hasn't been among the runs for his team. Kohli, who has 23,726 international runs in 463 matches (ODIs, Tests, and T20Is), is fourth on the list of Indian Test run getters, since his last international century, after Rishabh Pant (1369 runs in 20 matches), Cheteshwar Pujara (1052 runs in 21 matches) and Rohit Sharma (996 runs in 13 matches). Kohli in this period has played 18 Tests (since November 2019) and scored 872 runs at an average of 27.25, including 6 fifties.

India will be playing against Pakistan in the much-awaited Asia Cup 2022 clash on August 28. One player who will be badly missed in the high-octane encounter is Jasprit Bumrah.

He is currently undergoing rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru and making sure that he leaves no stone unturned in getting back to his best in terms of fitness as soon as possible.

BWF World Championships: B Sai Praneeth Loses, Ashwini Ponnappa-N Sikki Reddy, Tanisha Crasto-Ishaan Bhatnagar Win On Day 1

B Sai Praneeth failed to cross the opening hurdle after losing in three games but India registered twin wins in women's and mixed doubles competition on the opening day of the BWF World Championships here on Monday. Praneeth, a 2019 bronze medallist, put up a brave effort before going down 15-21 21-15 15-21 to world number 4 Chou Tien Chen of Chinese Taipei in little over an hour. It was yet another forgettable outing in Tokyo for Praneeth, following his struggles at last year's Olympic Games where he participated without a proper coach or physio to eventually bow out early.
