IND Vs PAK, T20 World Cup: Virat Kohli Was Graceful In Defeat, Says Pakistan's Sana Mir

Former Pakistan women's cricket team captain Sana Mir is floored by Virat Kohli's gesture towards his opponents even after their 10-wicket thrashing in a T20 World Cup clash on Sunday.

Former captain and Pakistan women바카라s cricket legend Sana Mir has called Virat Kohli a 바카라role model바카라 for his gesture towards his opponents even after defeat stating the Indian men바카라s team skipper is a secured individual.

India were undone by Pakistan by 10 wickets for the first time in an ICC tournament in their opening Super 12 game of the ongoing T20 World Cup on Sunday in Dubai. However, one of the most endearing images from the match was of the Indian captain hugging winning team hero Mohammed Rizwan.

바카라Virat Kohli handled the defeat with so much grace and I admire his sportsman spirit. It바카라s really good to see the top athletes, who are role models, behaving in the way he did,바카라 Mir wrote in her column for the ICC바카라s official website.

바카라It shows a lot of security within, and it means they have a lot of confidence to bounce back,바카라 she further wrote. Mir said she won바카라t be surprised if India come back in the tournament with some big wins.

Batting first, India made a disastrous start when they lost both openers Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul were beaten by Shaheen Shah Afridi's pace. However, it was Kohli's 57 and Rishabh Pant's 39 that propelled India to 151/7 in 20 overs. 

In reply, Pakistan openers Rizwan and Babar Azam scored unbeaten knocks of 79 and 68 respectively to see the team home in 17.5 overs. It was also Pakistan's first win over India in World Cups.  

바카라I won바카라t be surprised if India bounce back very quickly and in a big fashion and I hope we can see Pakistan and India play each other again in this tournament.바카라 On Pakistan, the legendary woman cricketer said she liked skipper Babar Azam바카라s attitude of looking immediately towards the next assignment instead of enjoying a prolonged celebration.

바카라With this performance, Pakistan have definitely become one of the favourites for the tournament, but it was heartening to see Babar and Shaheen not get carried away when in front of the media, they were focused on the next games,바카라 she said.

바카라It is a great sign that they are staying level-headed and shows the team is going in the right direction,바카라 she further wrote.
