Virat Kohli adopts aggressive batting style in India victory

In a One Day International match against the West Indies in Thiruvananthapuram, Virat Kohli demonstrated a new, more aggressive batting style. Kohli scored an unbeaten 139 runs off just 88 balls, including 13 boundaries and 9 sixes, setting a new record for the most sixes in a single ODI innings.

Captain Shubman Gill, who scored 110 runs, noted that Kohli’s approach has shifted. While Kohli previously played a more controlled role to suit the team's needs, he has now decided to play with more freedom to maximize run production when conditions allow. The duo shared a 151-run partnership to lead India to an 8-wicket victory after the West Indies posted 295 runs.
