Another fan expressed his hope and said that he was confident Kohli will score his hundred in the World Cup during the match against Pakistan. "Talking of Pakistan, they are scared of only one player and that is Virat Kohli," said the fan.

Talking of Saturday's blockbuster encounter between India and Pakistan in the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023, both India and Pakistan have won their two matches in the tournament so far.
