After the new rules in ODIs were implemented, when there can be only 4 fielders outside the 30-yard circle, most matches are won or lost during this period. Successful teams in the recent past have had a middle order which is more steady and consistent during over nos. 11-40.

Virat Kohli can surely add the much-needed stability in the middle order and he is one player who has the game to up the ante whenever required. The Indian captain can be the perfect batsman who can set up the game for the Dhoni's and Pandya's to finish the innings on a high.
