India vs New Zealand T20s: 4 players who could be valuable picks in your fantasy playing XI

#1 Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli

It seems that Virat Kohli's purple patch as a batsman is forever, as he guided India to yet another series win against Australia. He will continue to lead the charge for India with the bat. His records in the shorter formats have been growing exponentially, with he himself being the only threat to them.

More than his batting, the series is more important for Kohli the captain. Injuries have ruled out T20 regulars Hardik Pandya and Deepak Chahar. The lower-middle order will be in question as no one seems to have sealed their spot. He would also want to win a T20 series in New Zealand as Indians have failed to do so till now.

The 31-year old thrives to perform under pressure. Hence this might be the series where he breaks that jinx against the Kiwis. The five-match series presents a new opportunity for the leading run-scorer ever (2689 runs @ 52.72) in T20 Internationals to create more records. Given the form he is in, Kohli walks into your team straight away.
