Virat Kohli is one of eight Indian cricketers travelling to England on Tuesday for the WTC final after the heartbreak of the IPL 2023: Report

Following the conclusion of the IPL, Kohli and seven other Indian athletes will go to England to prepare for the crucial match against Australia at The Oval.

Virat Kohli hasn’t dreamed about the IPL season in a very long time. In fact, Royal Challengers Bangalore recorded their poorest points table result since they came in last place in 2019. As a result, Kohli was again denied the elusive trophy that has eluded him for so long in his 16th IPL season. The 33-year-old gets an opportunity to make up for what India missed in the 2021 final against New Zealand as attention now turns to the World Test Championship. Following the conclusion of the IPL, Kohli and seven other Indian athletes will go to England to prepare for the crucial match against Australia at The Oval.

During the IPL 2023 season, Unadkat and Umesh missed time due to injury; Lucknow Super Giants, who made the playoffs on Saturday, filled up for the former. Both pacers, according to the report, passed the National Cricket Academy’s fitness test.

India has already advanced to the WTC final thrice. They had fallen to the Kane Williamson-led team in the Lord’s 2021 championship game. A victory would also be the Indian team’s first ICC trophy since their Champions Trophy triumph in 2013 under MS Dhoni’s guidance.
