Virat Kohli Averages 72 In CT 2025, But There's A Missing Element
Virat Kohli is just 10 runs behind England's Ben Duckett, the current leading run-scorer of Champions Trophy 2025 tournament.
With ICC Champions Trophy 2025 reaching its final stage, Team India, under Rohit Sharma's leadership, has remained unbeaten. Virat Kohli has been instrumental in India's campaign, delivering match-winning performances against Pakistan and Australia.
As India prepares to take on New Zealand in IND vs NZ Champions Trophy 2025 final, fans are hoping for another stellar knock from the 'chase master'. However, despite his consistent run-scoring, one surprising aspect stands out - Kohli has barely hit any sixes in the CT 2025 tournament.
Virat Kohli's Champions Trophy performance
In four matches, Virat Kohli has scored 217 runs at an average of 72.33. Surprisingly, he has managed just 15 fours but remains fourth on the list of top scorers in the tournament. While his ability to anchor innings has been crucial for India, the lack of sixes in his gameplay is a notable contrast to the power-hitting trend in modern ODI cricket.
A shot at the Top scorer spot
Virat Kohli is just 10 runs behind England's Ben Duckett, the current leading run-scorer of Champions Trophy 2025 tournament. This gives him a golden opportunity to claim the top spot in Sunday's IND vs NZ Final.
However, he will face stiff competition from New Zealand's Rachin Ravindra, who has already scored 226 runs in just three matches, including two centuries - the only batsman to achieve this feat in the tournament.
Six-hitting leaders of CT 2025 tournament
Afghanistan's Azmatullah Omarzai currently leads the six-hitting charts with eight maximums. Close behind him are Ibrahim Zadran (Afghanistan), Rassie van der Dussen (South Africa), and Glenn Phillips (New Zealand), each with seven sixes. Australia's Josh Inglis is in fifth place with six sixes from three matches.
While Kohli has been dominant with the bat, will he be able to clear the ropes in IND vs NZ Champions Trophy 2025 final?
