Former Indian skipper, Virat Kohli is one of the most talked-about cricketers in world cricket at any moment in time as the fans love to watch him play. The right-handed batter showed glimpses of his return to form when he smashed as he struck a stunning six during the third T20I against England which left commentators and fans in awe.
India is locking horns with England in the final T20I of the three-match series at Nottingham. After wrapping up the series on Saturday by winning the second T20I under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, India rested Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, Yuzvendra Chahal and Bhuvneshwar Kumar for the final match of the series. Umran Malik, Shreyas Iyer, Ravi Bishnoi and Avesh Khan were included for the match.

After winning the toss, England skipper, Jos Buttler decided to bat first and were off to a flyer. However, just when Jason Roy and Jos Buttler started looking threatening, the Indian bowlers managed to dismiss them. Following that Dawid Malan played a gem of a knock as he smashed the Indian bowlers to all parts of the ground and made sure India was on the backfoot.
The left-handed batter scored 77 from 39 balls which helped his team cross the 200-run mark. Liam Livingstone also found his form as he played a flamboyant knock of 42 from 29 to help his team reach 215. India saw Rohit Sharma and Rishabh Pant open the batting for the men in blue once again.

However, the Indian opening pair did not get a great start as Rishabh Pant was dismissed for just 1 run. Virat Kohli walked out to bat after Pant’s dismissal and was looking in good touch. The former Indian captain on the third ball of the third over which was being bowled by David Willey stepped out and smashed a six right back over David Willey’s head which was one of the finest shots of the Indian innings thus far.
