After two consecutive losses, Team India managed to get their first win in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 as they defeated Afghanistan by 66 runs.
Surely this gave all a breather, but the difficult road for India is not yet over as Virat Kohli’s team will next face Scotland and Namibia in their next fixtures in which they will need to win with bigger margins.Â
As the team is gearing up for the crucial game against the Scots, the side will also be celebrating the birthday of skipper Kohli, who turned 33 today (November 5).
Not just teammates, but fans have started showing praises for the captain and hyping him up ahead of the match. They even started calling him G.O.A.T (Greatest Of All Time) in cricket to show all how much the batter has achieved.

As far as India’s campaign in the T20 World Cup is concerned, while India will need to win their next two matches with bigger margins, they will also need Afghanistan to beat New Zealand, no matter what the margin is, to make it to the semi-finals.Â
