Former Indian opener Aakash Chopra surprised by Virat Kohli's aggressive approach in the second T20I against Afghanistan, but warned against altering his strike rate to maintain consistency. Kohli, making his return to T20I cricket after over a year, displayed an attacking intent with a strike rate above 180. Chopra acknowledged Kohli's entertaining innings but emphasized the need for him to maintain his T20I career strike rate of around 140. Virat Kohli has accumulated 4,037 runs in 116 matches.
