Rahul Dravid, the head coach of the Indian cricket team, has expressed his confidence in Virat Kohli's potential impact in the upcoming final match of the IND vs SA T20 World Cup 2024. Despite Kohli's recent struggles with the bat, having scored only 75 runs in seven matches, Dravid believes in Kohli's ability to perform when it matters most.
Dravid pointed out Kohli's history of delivering in high-pressure situations and his impressive track record in previous T20 World Cup semi-finals. Despite a low score in the semi-final against England, Dravid remains hopeful that Kohli will make a significant contribution in the final against South Africa.
"After the semi-final match against England, I see promise in Virat's recent performances. He may have had a tough game, but I admire his intent and his willingness to take risks," Dravid commented. "I have a feeling that a big innings is on the horizon for him. His attitude and commitment on the field deserve success."
India's qualification for the T20 World Cup final, their first in ten years, was secured with a convincing win over England. However, Kohli's form has been a topic of concern leading up to the final showdown against South Africa. As the team prepares to face off at Kensington Oval in Barbados, all eyes will be on Kohli, with hopes high that Dravid's prediction will come true, and he will play a pivotal role in the match.
