A Stat that proves why Virat Kohli is the GOAT of T20I Cricket

Virat Kohli is yet to be dismissed in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022.

Indian Cricketer Virat Kohli has been no doubt in red hot form. He’s currently playing in the T20 World Cup 2022 and it’s fair to say that he holds the key for his side in the tournament. Rated as one of the best players across the formats, the right-hander has etched several records to his name and is also breaking records along the way in the ongoing tournament.

Virat Kohli has the most fifties in T20Is in Australia 

Indian cricketer Virat Kohli for the past three years has come under a lot of scanner for his poor form. The criticism was this much as his place in the side was even doubted. He took a short break from cricket and returned to the Asia Cup 2022 following which he has been in fine form.

Ever since returning to cricket, he has set the stage on fire. Although India lost the tournament he was one of the biggest positives for the side as looked at himself and also scored a century during that tournament.

His impressive form continued in the home series against Australia and South Africa and then he carried his staggering form in the T20 World Cup 2022. He almost single-handedly won the game against Pakistan to help his side begin their campaign on high.

He played staggering innings of unbeaten 82 runs and pulled one of the most incredible chases in the history of cricket as he batted sensationally well to help his team win. Kohli followed his unbeaten 82 runs with 62* runs against the Netherlands.

With his half-century against the Netherlands, Kohli became the player with the most fifties in Australia. The former Indian skipper has so far smashed 7 half-centuries in 12 innings surpassing David Warner and Aaron Finch, who also have 7 fifties in 29 innings and 42 innings respectively.
