Virat Kohli is in a very different zone: Suresh Raina

However, the former CSK star was recently seen praising India’s stalwart Virat Kohli after his match-winning knock against New Zealand in the ODI World Cup 2023. The cricketer-turned-commentator feels the RCB stalwart is in prime form, enjoying his batting and taking responsibility to make sure India wins their games in the 2023 ODI World Cup.

“Virat Kohli is in a very different zone. He’s been in prime form, enjoying his batting and is taking responsibility. The best thing he did today was have a good partnership with Ravindra Jadeja. Jadeja is also amongst runs now and he needed that confidence from Virat Kohli. Every time we’re in trouble, Kohli says let me do the job for the team. He’s done that a lot of times. The confidence, the calmness, the game awareness has been amazing from Kohli,” Suresh Raina said.
