Virat Kohli
Virat Kohli is in really good form but his ability in T20 Cricket despite all he has done in the format remains a question. He was the starring figure in the last T20 World Cup, but his strike-rate and style of play continue to put him under the scanner. With questions on if he and Rohit Sharma can play in the same eleven still around Virat Kohli has a lot to prove.
Ibrahim Zadran
Ibrahim Zadran was an underrated star in the previous World Cup, coming up with some gems throughout the tournament. He is a part of a growing batting line-up and has the potential to make a mark at the global stage across formats.
Afghanistan is a competitive side but beating India at home will be a challenge, especially with the return of India’s biggest stars at the moment.
