BIG BREAKING: VIRAT KOHLI TO PLAY RANJI MATCH FOR DELHI VS RAILWAYS. STARTING JANUARY 30.
Just got it confirmed from Delhi team, DDCA
#ViratKohli𓃵 #RanjiTrophy
Shastri on Kohli on Sony Extra Innings: “I have been watching him closely for years and I cannot say if I have seen him batting better. He can still play Test cricket, he has the fitness, the abilities anyone can see that.” #ViratKohli #Kohli #INDvsNZ #RaviShastri #RohitSharma
Pitch looks different, conditions look different once he departs. As if 2 matches happening. One where #ViratKohli batting, other where everyone else played. Barring those 51 balls Kohli faced in which he scored a fluent, classy 74, it was a day of ball dominating bat. #INDvsNZ
Shreyas Iyer said at the presentation, ball was seaming when he & #SanjuSamson went to bat, wondered how two openers batted so explosively. Now realise what a masterclass it was from #abhisheksharma & also #VaibhavSooryavanshi remember book cricket in our school days! #INDvsNZ
113 off 38 balls, 11 sixes. If you thought #VaibhavSooryavanshi is the most explosive opener in T20 cricket, #AbhishekSharma showed he deserves that crown. A strike rate of nearly 300! Strongest offside batter at the moment, I would say. #IndvsNz #T20 #T20Cricket #IndianCricket
Wind? Where is the wind? There is cyclone in Wellington, both Indian openers on carnage. 100 in just 5 overs. #AbhishekSharma 67 off 20 balls! #VaibhavSooryavanshi opening the innings 34 off 14. A target of 199 and India’s required rate now is just 6.14! Unbelievable! #IndvsNz
Vaibhav showing why he should be allowed to open. That’s his position. If you play him, you have to play him as opener. 26 runs from the 1st over, India 43/0 from just 2 overs.. both #VaibhavSooryavanshi & #AbhishekSharma on fire utilising the short square boundaries. #INDvsNZ
Brilliant catch by #NamanDhir diving in front. India gets the breakthrough they have been looking for. Good start by #NitishKumarReddy but still lot of work to do. #GlennPhillips is in great touch & #DarylMitchell counter attacking Indian bowlers. NZ 100/2 from 10. #INDvsNZ
Third toss win in a row for #shreyasiyer expectedly India will chase. Same team, should #VaibhavSooryavanshi open? To do that #SanjuSamson has to bat No 3 but then you may ask, why Sanju has to adjust always? Wind of Wellington big challenge, NZ miss Henry, Ferguson. #INDvsNZ
Tilak Varma! What an inspirational story! What a finisher! Looks set for bigger achievements across all formats of the game. Cool and composed, extreme confidence and belief on his abilities. #TilakVarma #INDvsNZ #indvsnz2ndT20I #T20Cricket #IndianCricket
India win a thriller at Christchurch, #TilakVarma the finisher, the hero but #VaibhavSooryavanshi debate continues. If you change his batting order you change his natural instinct. If he plays, he has to open. #INDvsNZ #SanjuSamson #AbhishekSharma #T20Cricket #TeamIndia
Mohun Bagan are IFA Shield winners. They defeated East Bengal 1-0 in the final to win the century old competition. Samir Zeljkovic scored the only goal of the match. Don’t miss the huge Shield, one of the biggest. #MohunBagan #KolkataDwrby #EastBengal #MBSG #MohunBaganSupergiant
Rishabh Pant suffered side strain and was also ill, running fever. He has been taken to the hospital for scan and examination. May not be too serious, hopefully he gets well soon. Great win by Rest of India though with Mukesh Kumar with six wickets. #RishabhPant #IndianCricket
Brazil team’s practice session at Salt Lake Yuva Bharati stadium. Look at the huge media gathering in the 2nd video. Many have come from other parts of the country for the match, media from Brazil are also here. #Brazil #vinicius #viniciusjr #indianfootball #Ancelotti #Brasil

Shubman Gil scores the fastest ever ODI double century. 117 balls. The future belongs to him. And he has tackled burden of captaincy so nicely. India cruising to target of 406 courtesy opening stand of #Gill & #RohitSharma run feast in Guwahati. #ShubmanGill #INDvsWI
Shubman Gill wins toss and elects to chase again. #AuqibNabi making his debut in place of Nitish Kumar Reddy. West Indies makes four changes. Even Captain Shai Hope preferred not to take the challenge of naming those changes. #INDvsWI #ViratKohli #RohitSharma #ShubmanGill

This is #ViratKohli at his best. A new version and that also at the age of 37 having retired from two other versions of the game. When we actually keep waiting when would he play again. And he reappears and toys with the bowlers. Unreal! #KingKohli #INDvsWI
The bat raise, the roar, the milestone 👏👏
