India's T20I Report Card 2018: Rating the players

Virat Kohli - 6/10

Australia v India - T20

The Indian skipper Virat Kohli is arguably the only batsman who could deliver his best in all three formats of the game. But, he was not consistent in the T20I format in 2018. Kohli, who was the leading run-scorers in T20Is in 2016, scored only one fifty this year.

In 2018, the Delhi-born cricketer scored 211 runs in 10 games at an average of 30.14 and a strike-rate of 121.97. He smashed his only T20I fifty of the year against Australia in November.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar - 6/10

South Africa v India - T20 International

Bhuvneshwar Kumar began the year with a positive note when he picked up a fifer against South Africa at the New Wanderers Stadium. But, he failed to continue the same performance in the following games and went wicketless on six occasions in 2018.

He picked up 12 wickets from 11 games this year at an average of 22.17 and an economy rate of 6.54.
