Virat Kohli can create history against Netherlands :-

Virat Kohli has a great chance of becoming the king of T20 World Cup in the match against Netherlands.

So far this record is in the name of former Sri Lankan captain Mahela Jayawardene.

Virat Kohli played a brilliant innings against Pakistan :-

Virat Kohli played an unbeaten innings of 82 runs against Pakistan. After this innings, his name has gone up to 927 runs in the T20 World Cup and he is third in the list of highest run-scorers in the T20 World Cup after Mahela Jayawardhan and Chris Gayle.

Mahela Jayawardene is the only batsman in this list who has more than 1000 runs to his name. A total of 1016 runs were scored from Mahela’s bat from 2007 to 2014 T20 World Cup.

Mahela Jayawardene scored 1000 runs in 25 innings :-

Mahela Jayawardene scored 1000 runs in 25 innings in the T20 World Cup, while Virat Kohli has scored 927 runs in 20 innings. If Kohli scores 73 runs today, he will become the fastest batsman to score 1000 runs in T20 World Cup. Even if he is not able to do the same against the Netherlands, he will still have some more chances left.

On the other hand, if Virat Kohli manages to score 39 runs against the Netherlands today, he will become the second highest run-scorer in the T20 World Cup, while breaking the record of former West Indies opener Chris Gayle.
