Former India skipper Sourav Ganguly is hopeful that Kohli will return back in form, and he is confident of that. “He needs to score runs not only for India but for himself. Hopefully, it will be a good season for him. We all are confident that he’ll come back,” Ganguly was quoted by Hindustan Times.

Ganguly also said that Kohli has his own formula to score so many runs. Even when a huge section of the fans is questioning his role in the team. “He’s a very big player, there for a long time. I know he has his own formula to score runs. It’s not possible that players of his stature can’t have such a long, lean patch, I know he will definitely score runs. If he was not a great player, he would not have scored so many runs for so long.”

Even though Shaheen Afridi is injured and has been ruled out of the Asia Cup, he has been the focal point of discussions and debates in the entire build-up of the tournament.

The former India captain became the latest member to add a comment on his injury and whether or not it will affect the match. Speaking to India Today, the Prince of Calcutta said, “I don’t think one player can make a difference. It’s teamwork. We also don’t have Jasprit Bumrah”.

Highlights:

• Ganguly backs Kohli to regain his form.

• Ganguly feels Shaheen’s absence will not make a huge difference in the game on Sunday.
