In the past 5 years or so, Virat Kohli has developed a tendency to fire in matches, where India are desperate to win.The right-hander so far in this Champions Trophy has had one good innings and one duck and will look to amends for the latter performance on Sunday.
The last time India played South Africa in a major 50-over event, the 28-year-old made 41 as India trounced South Africa in Melbourne in the World Cup of 2015.
He averages 39 against the Proteas and will look to strengthen that number, by putting in a fine performance on Sunday.
