Virat Kohli does not need us, we need him: Bumrah
Bumrah, however, stressed that Kohli knows his cricket better than anyone else and that his experience of batting in these challenging conditions was essential from the team’s perspective.
India won the T20I series by 2-1.
The absence of Virat Kohli from the third and series decider T20 International against South Africa was the talking point of the match. However, India won the match by seven runs at Newlands, Cape Town.
During the third T20I, when India was batting in 20th over, Indian skipper Virat Kohli was seen giving head massage to explosive opener Shikhar Dhawan.
Here are the pictures:

Dhawan and Kohli have a great rapport with each other. The duo often shares the photograph of each-other on their social networking sites.
Many times, even the wives of the cricketers, Aesha Dhawan and Anushka Sharma have been seen with each other.
The recently concluded India’s South Africa tour has been satisfactory for the team. Virat Kohli-led India for the first-time won the six-match One day International (ODI) series by 5-1 and then the three-match T20I series by 2-1.
Notably, the visitors had lost the three-match Test series by 2-1.
