India batter Virat Kohli put all the criticism on hold after he roared back to form during the Asia Cup 2022 with a century against Afghanistan.

India head coach Rahul Dravid was point-blank in his assessment that the 469 they conceded after electing to bowl on a “green wicket” put India on the back foot. It meant playing catch up for the rest of the WTC final at The Oval. “It wasn’t a 469 wicket,” Dravid told Star Sports, after Australia
