ODI World Cup 2023 is nothing short of a blockbuster, packed with thrilling performances, a gripping finale and of course, some drama. Among the shining stars and unforgettable moments, one name shines brightest: Virat Kohli<\/strong><\/a>. The Indian batting maestro not only broke records but also stole the hearts of millions with his dazzling performances, scoring a total of 765 runs, including 3 centuries and 6 fifties. However, controversy is never far away in the world of cricket. Enter Mohammad Hafeez, the former Pakistan captain who, in a famous knock, reignited the debate over Kohli’s “selfish” approach to batting.<\/p>\n\n\n

The plot unfolds: Hafiz\u2019s bold claim<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On a recent episode of the Club Prairie Fire podcast, Mohammad Hafeez joined cricket legends Michael Vaughan and Adam Gilchrist in deciding to shake things up. Hafeez did not hesitate to criticize Kohli for being “selfish” during his century against South Africa. In that match, Kohli scored an unbeaten 101 off 121 deliveries to lead India to a stunning total of 326\/5 before dismissing South Africa for just 83 runs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I guess I was right,” Hafiz said with the confidence of a man who has just found the last samosas at a party. “If you look at the entire situation, no matter who is playing, your intention should always be to win the game. Your intention should always remain the same: to do whatever is the best way possible to add value to the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fight of the century<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Hafeez’s criticism centered on Kohli’s approach to achieving his century target. Hafeez accused Kohli of slowing down in the nineties, suggesting personal milestones took precedence over team dynamics. “If someone stops himself from playing big time in the 90s, I will never accept it. After 95, if someone takes 5 balls to reach his 100, and if his intentions change after 100\u2026 why can’t he What about the same shot at 95 or 92? Hafeez asked, channeling his inner detective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kohli\u2019s masterclass or masterclass?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Despite the controversies, Kohli’s performance throughout the tournament was outstanding. His ability to maintain a healthy strike rate while controlling the innings laid the foundation for India’s ten-match unbeaten run leading up to the final. Kohli, who scored an unbeaten 101 against South Africa, was a masterclass in strategic batting and sheer determination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mixed reaction from cricket fraternity<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The cricketing fraternity remains divided over Hafeez’s remarks. Kohli’s supporters believe that his approach was strategic and ensured a stable total while minimizing risk. Critics, on the other hand, believe that a more aggressive approach could further demoralize the opponent and increase the team’s chances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michael Vaughan provided a balanced view in the podcast, stating: “Every player has his own style and approach. What matters is the end result and Kohli has played a vital role in many of India’s wins. Adam Gilchrist added: \u201cThere are times in cricket where caution is needed but the balance between individual milestones and team success is really delicate. “<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While opinions vary, the discussion underscores the complexities and pressures faced by top-level cricketers.
