T20 World Cup 2024

‘You know I love you, but…’- Kevin Pietersen makes a hilarious request to Virat Kohli ahead of England’s semi-final clash with India in 20-20 World Cup

India is all set to take on England in the 20-20 World Cup semi-final on November 10th at Adelaide. The Indian team is gearing up for a stiff challenge from the Jos Butler-led England team who have thwarted the tough competition of Group 1 to land into the semi-final.

Virat Kohli, the star India batter who was struggling with form from last three years finally found touch and is leading the scoring charts at the 20-20 World Cup. The right-hand batter has played sensationally to amass 246 runs in five matches so far. The Number 3 batter has a sensational average of 122 at the ongoing event.

He would be one player that the England team need to be wary of if they are to get into the final. The batter recently posted a video of him batting at the nets ahead of the mouth-watering contest. The video posted on Twitter had the caption, “Enjoying the process.”

Meanwhile, former England player Kevin Pietersen made a special request to Kohli that has fans rolling on the floor.  Under Kohli’s post, he wrote, “Please have a day of Thursday, bud! You know I love you but just chill Thursday please!”

Earlier, Pietersen elaborated on his special request to Kohli in his blog for Betway. “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 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 in back. As a close friend, I’m very happy for him, but I just need Virat to have a day off.”
