In T20s, India need players who can bat around Viratt Kohli and Rohit Sharma and play with more freedom. India won the first T20I despite hitting fewer boundaries than the West Indies, but just like Kohli’s special knock, that was the exception, not the rule. That is the reason why West Indies in Mumbai can go into the decider as the slight favourites.

He knew he was special. On the pitch at Hyderabad’s Rajiv Gandhi Stadium, as Virat Kohli offered condolences to the West Indies, he took a moment before walking to the dressing room. With the hand he had for a handshake, he grabbed the helmet hidden under his arm and lifted it. The bat also came up, acknowledging the applause of the enthralled crowd. It was a gesture usually reserved for a century. His unbeaten knock of 94, from 50 balls, was six less but worth more.

It was also an innings that showed a very different side to Kohli, a period where he looked deadly, and it is for this reason that it is important. Before that, he couldn’t buy a shot, not even with all the obscene talent in his arms (or the many zeros in his bank). He lived on the edge of his bat: One inside saved him – that Sheldon Cottrell inswinger – and one almost wiped him out – that boundary to fine leg off Hayden Walsh Jr. wine was somehow folded into a bottle that has been pouring exceptionally well for a decade. At 3 from 9 balls, and 20 from 20, no one could predict the storm that was to come. The result: an individual high score and a team record chase.

“All the young batsmen watching are not following the first half of my innings,” he said after the game. He could also describe his body language in that period. Every distress brought fury, fueled by the ever-increasing speed of demand. “I tried to hit the ball too hard,” he explained. In the process, he picked a fight with the umpire and the bowlers, but they were all smokescreens hiding the real conflict: Kohli was fighting himself.

It is worth examining why, especially in light of India’s eight-wicket loss to the West Indies in the 2nd T20I, and in the context of India seeking a second T20 World Cup. “It was about keeping the game going and (with the asking rate at) 10-in over. I wanted to contribute from the other end, at least 140 impressively, but I couldn’t go,” said Kohli. In doing so, Kohli tried to play outside himself. He failed, admitted that failure and returned to what he does best. It was a remarkable display of awareness, and a transformation that we usually see during a Test series, except that it happened in minutes. “In the second half of the innings I analyzed where I went wrong and just started to keep my form. I’m not a guy who hits the ball, I rely more on my timing.

But for those 20 balls, Kohli tried to be someone else, and he did it because that’s what modern T20 cricket demands. Today’s game has little time for indulgences like a few early singles, or settling. As Kohli went on to say, the game puts you in ‘that zone’ where the scoreboard dictates style. Kohli didn’t like that zone so he went back to himself and found another way to win. And there it will stay. “The basic foundation is that I don’t want to change my game too much, (as) I play all three formats,” he said. We probably won’t see many more such spells from Kohli, probably until the next sighting of Halley’s Comet.

But if Kohli doesn’t change, someone else will have to, and that’s something the selectors and team managers don’t want to do. India’s T20I team and ODI squad for this series differed by just one player, when they were first announced. Only Shikhar Dhawan’s injury has given KL Rahul a glimpse, and he has shown why he should be kept in the shortest format. The promotion of Shivam Dube, who was mainly used to hit quick boundaries, was a very welcome move.

There is value in having match-fixing batsmen, especially when those batsmen are of the quality of Kohli and Rohit Sharma, but India need to pick players around them who can take more risks.

India won the first T20I despite hitting fewer boundaries than the West Indies, but just like Kohli’s special knock, that was the exception, not the rule. That is the reason why West Indies in Mumbai can go into the decider as the slight favourites. Unlike India, their entire batting line-up is only settled on one side of the game.
