Asia Cup 2022: Will the knock against Hong Kong become the turning point Virat Kohli has been searching for?
Ask Virat Kohli. Once the best batsman in the world, now without a century for almost 3 years. The unbeaten 59 off 44 balls on Wednesday at the Asia Cup would have been very welcome runs for Kohli, even though they came against Hong Kong, who are ranked 20th in the ICC T20I team rankings. Runs under the belt always gives a batter confidence and prepares him or her for harder battles ahead. This was Kohli’s 31st T20I fifty overall - he has the maximum number of half centuries in T20I cricket overall - and though his last fifty in the shortest format was scored only 4 games ago (for him), it was over 6 months ago - on February 18, 2022.
