When Jofra Archer was quizzed about the one wicket he wants the most, he was quick to respond and said "Virat Kohli". Undoubtedly, when India and England face off this Sunday, Jofra Archer will hold the 'X-factor' with his pace and zip off the surface.

More importantly, Archer is the second highest wicket taker with 16 wickets in seven games and will hold the key for England against a star-studded Indian batting line-up.

On the other hand, Virat Kohli has been in great form. Kohli has four consecutive half-centuries in this World Cup and with both the stars hitting their peak at the current moment, the prospect of the two squaring off is certain to be a mouth-watering affair.

With India almost through to the semifinals and England needing to win all of their remaining games, Kohli and Archer will have important roles to dictate the outcome of the game.
