India set to take on England in the second semifinals of the ongoing T20 World Cup at Adelaide Cricket Stadium. The 2007 champions are all together the favourites to win the game but going with the last few knock out results of ICC tournaments, England can’t be ignored against the ‘Men in Blue’.
Just two days ahead of mega clash, former England skipper Kevin Pietersen has jumped into a social media banter with Virat Kohli.
Commenting on Instagram, Pietersen said that he loves Virat but wants him to take a day off on Thursday when the semifinals clash is scheduled.
Earlier, Pietersen also wrote about Kohli in his blog.
“I backed Kohli throughout the little loss of form that he had, and he’s had a lot to deal with. He is an entertainer, he needs crowds, he needs that buzz, he needs that excitement. He didn’t have that for a few years, and he lost his way. But the crowds are in, it’s a T20 World Cup in Australia – one of the greatest places to play T20 cricket – and the King is back. As a close friend, I’m very happy for him, but I just need Virat to have a day off,” Pietersen wrote in his blog for Betway.
Former England skipper also heaped praise on Suryakumar Yadav’s rise. He lauded his all-round performance and he’s current greatest.
“It’s just so good to see the greatest current player back in the runs, not only from India’s perspective, but for the world of cricket. For India, he’s such a major component for them to start seeing some consistency. When Virat plays well, the other players start to perform around him. You saw that with Suryakumar Yadav and the innings he played against Zimbabwe; it was just spectacular. When your talisman is back, it helps massively,” added the England legend.
